| Annotation | This paper reports on experience of care trusts in making use of flexibilities introduced under Section 31 of the Health Act 1999. Three areas were chosen for study because they were known to have attached priority to health and social care integration and were at the leading edge of development. Drawing on discussions at a series of seminars at which the experience of each area was presented and reviewed, the paper identifies a number of emerging lessons for the future of integration in a context in which the Government has established a Minister-led review to explore what more needs to be done to encourage integration.
