PARLIAMENTARY WRITTEN QUESTION
Neurology (27 January 2020)

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what plans his Department has to require local authorities to record when someone they are providing services for has a neurological condition, to ensure that those needs are being met.

Asked by:
Sir John Hayes (Conservative)

There are no current plans to collect this information within social care data returns from local authorities. However, local authorities can currently record this for their own internal use when providing services for individuals, in order to capture experiences and outcomes and identify whether their needs are being met.
