To help inform the drafting of Regulations under the Carers (Scotland) Act, a number of working groups have been established. Each of these groups has representation from carers, National Carer Organisations, local authorities, health boards, COSLA, third and independent sectors, and other key interests. Each group has a focus on a specific part of the Act. These are:
- Adult Carer Support Plan / Young Carer Statement
- Breaks from Caring
- Creating Conditions for Successful Implementation
- Eligibility Criteria
- Monitoring and Evaluation
- Terminal Illness Timescales
Relevant papers will be made available on this page in due course.
