註釋An examination of the operation of the free personal care policy in Scotland, its impact, problems and limitations. Although the free personal care policy has wide public support, local authorities report that misunderstandings remain - for example, concerning whether meal preparation is free. Looking primarily from a local authority perspective, the study suggests possible reasons for increases in demand for care; uses statistical data since 2002; and analyses a series of interviews conducted from August to October 2006 with local authorities and the Scottish Commission for the Regulation of Care. Finally, the authors investigate why there is so much variation between local authorities - some controlling expenditure successfully but others having difficulty meeting the costs of the policy.
