Consultation on funding for Local HealthWatch, NHS complaints advocacy, PCT deprivation of liberty safeguards
Subject to the passage of the Health and Social Care Bill, the Department of Health will allocate funding for Local HealthWatch, NHS complaints advocacy and, potentially, PCT deprivation of liberty safeguards from October 2012.
This additional funding will be added to the current learning disabilities and health reform grant. This consultation, which closes on 24 October 2011, is asking for views on options for distributing the new funding.
