Social Care Indicators from the National Indicator Set - England, 2008-09, Provisional

The Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government announced a new set of national indicators (NIS) for English local authorities and local authority partnerships. The set underpins the new performance framework for local government and meets the Government's commitment to introduce a clear set of national outcomes and a single set of national indicators by which to measure them. The first official year for these indicators is 2008-09.
