| Annotation | These working papers provide some background and additional information about the work of the review, especially the work in the South West that has focused on the practical implementation of the legislation. There has been a close collaboration between the analysis of the broad themes at a national level and the work in the South West focusing on specific issues that are of direct relevance to statutory organisations, their partners and service users and carers. This has led the review to both build on existing pieces of work commissioned by the Department of Health (DH) and to commission further work that will comprise a resource pack to support local implementation of the relevant sections of the Equality Bill. The annex contains the following sections: 1. Local Engagement Events: a summary of the key themes from the twelve engagement events held in September and October 2009; 2. The Resource Pack: details of the work commissioned from the National Development Team for Inclusion, the Social Care Institute for Excellence and Ros Levenson and colleagues to support local implementation; 3. Indicators: initial ideas on developing a set of indicators in collaboration with the University of West of England; 4. Age Explicit Criteria: a summary of initial review of national age explicit criteria within the Department of Health and its Arms Length Bodies; 5. Joint Strategic Needs Assessment: summary of a review of local JSNAs by the University of West of England; 6. Literature Reviews: key themes from the reviews undertaken by the Centre for Policy on Ageing (CPA); and 7. Cost effectiveness and Quality Adjusted Life Years (QALYs): Discussion of the work with the University of Leeds. The literature reviews undertaken by the CPA are also available to download from the organisation's website (www.cpa.org.uk). (KJ/RH). |
