As indicated in the previous reply, while this is a commitment under Government for National Recovery 2011-16, several factors have to be taken into account in relation to the proposed regulation of the homecare sector, including the complex legal issues involved and legislative priorities for the wider Social Care area. In the circumstances, it is not expected that relevant legislation will be prepared until the latter end of the Programme for Government.
