Annotation"Lighter touch" regulations and National Minimum Standards are proposed for adult placement schemes. In Annex A, three sorts of changes to the Regulations are identified: adult placement carers caring for someone who has been ordinarily resident as a family member for 5 years or more (the 5 year rule); any placement that does not last for more than 28 days in any 12 month period; and short term breaks. Annex B, Changes proposed to the National Minimum Standards, states that adult placement carers, when providing short term breaks, need to be exempt from certain National Minimum Standards. (RH).
