Commission For Social Care Inspection (EDM452)

Commission For Social Care Inspection

EDM number 452 in 2007-08, proposed by David Anderson on 03/12/2007.
Categorised under the topics of Community care and Health services.

That this House expresses concern about the effects of deregulation of care inspection by the current Commission for Social Care Inspection; notes that the Health and Social Care Bill will create a new integrated regulator, the Care Quality Commission; further notes that the effects of deregulation include less frequent inspections, reliance on paper exercises and self-evaluation by care providers, a hands-off approach to complaints, and the loss of 360 inspection and support jobs; believes that these changes hinder inspectors' capacity to talk to service users and detect problems at an early stage and leave vulnerable care home residents at risk and with no system of redress; calls for an immediate moratorium on the job cuts proposed; and urges the Government to review the current care inspection system to determine whether reducing the burden of regulation is appropriate to the needs of vulnerable people in health and social care.

This motion has been signed by a total of 30 MPs.
