AnnotationTo mark the end of the Social Services Inspectorate (SSI) and the launch of the Commission for Social Care Inspection (CSCI), this publication charts SSI's history and achievements between 1985 and 2004. The aim is to highlight the challenges addressed by SSI during its 19 years as the national inspectorate for social services in England. The methods deployed, and how and why these changed over the years are examined in the context of policies such as Next Steps, Inspection Matters, and performance assessment, as well as the NHS and Community Care Act 1990.
