This consultation sought views on regulations covering the registration arrangements for children's homes, fostering agencies, independent adoption agencies, adoption support agencies and residential family centres.
The previous registration regulations for these establishments also covered adult and health settings. However, the Health and Social Care Act 2008 removed adult and health settings from the Care Standards Act 2001. The revised regulations consulted on therefore only covered children's social settings.
