Annotation	On 23 July 2002, the Secretary of State for Health announced the Government's intention to issue for consultation a set of revised physical environment standards for care homes. This letter was issued to accompany the consultation document, "Care homes for older people and younger adults: national minimum standards for care homes for older people [and] national minimum standards for care homes for younger adults (18-65): proposed amended environmental standards". The aim of the proposed amendments is to remove the requirement for care homes which existed before 1 April 2002 to conform to certain physical environmental standards. (RH).
