| Annotation | The Health and Social Care Act 2008 gives new enforcement powers to a new health and social regulator, the Care Quality Commission (CQC), whose powers will apply to NHS duties to prevent and control healthcare-related infections from April 2009, with other powers fully in force from April 2010. Age Concern England (ACE) comments on a consultation which sets out proposals for using these enforcement powers, for example defining the concept of "serious harm". (RH). |
