Care Bill

JUSTICE joins with a coalition of organisations to support amendment of the Care Bill to clarify that all publicly funded or arranged care services should be considered a public function for the purposes of Section 6 of the Human Rights Act.

In May, the Government accepted the case and made their own amendments to the Bill, to the same effect. JUSTICE and other organisations welcomed this important concession. Read the initial Report stage briefing, and the Lords amendment, below.
