| Annotation | This is a report on the Consultation on the Review of the No Secrets guidance, and is about safeguarding adults. It describes how the consultation took place, analyses the responses received, and summarises the views of some 12,000 people. It does not include a government response. The Consultation was launched in October 2008 and closed at the end of January 2009. Safeguarding is considered in terms of personalisation, the National Health Service (NHS), housing, community empowerment, the criminal justice system, and the concerns of black and minority ethnic (BME) groups. Among key messages from the consultation are: safeguarding adults is not like child protection; the importance of the participation or representation of people who lack capacity' and empowerment and listening to victims.
