Regulation 7 Maximum weekly charge for non-residential care and supportI1

England and Wales

(1)

Except where the care and support which is provided, or is to be provided consists of provision of care and accommodation in a care home, a local authority may not determine that it is reasonably practicable for A to pay a total charge greater than F1£100 per week for the care and support.

(2)

But a local authority must, in calculating the total charge for the care and support which the person receives for the purpose of applying the maximum weekly charge in paragraph (1), exclude any charges in relation to care and support for which it imposes a flat-rate charge so that any flat-rate charges are separate to the charges for care and support to which the maximum weekly charge applies.
