The Social Services and Well-being (Wales) Act 2014 (“the Act”) places statutory duties on local authorities and local health boards to meet the care and support needs of people in Wales.
On the 1 September 2024 the statutory National Framework for the Commissioning of Care and Support in Wales: Code of Practice (“the National Framework”) came into force. Through our National Framework we aim to reduce complexity, facilitate national consistency of commissioning practices and rebalance commissioning to focus on quality and outcomes and put people who need care and support at the centre of the commissioning process based on the principles of ‘what matters’ to them.
The Code emphasises relationships and the importance of inclusive coproduction including between commissioners, people who need care and support, carers and providers of services.
To support the implementation of the Code of Practice, a comprehensive digital toolkit has been created hosted on the Social Care Wales communities platform which contains a range of tools to support commissioners to work in line with the principles and standards set in the Code of Practice including information on co-production.
