This impact assessment by the Department for Education and the Department of Health and Social Care is in response to a public consultation that ended in March 2018, on the regulatory framework for Social Work England. Social Care England will be the new regulatory body for social workers in England. The document sets out the outcomes from the general assessment of impacts, including equalities and costs impacts. The regulations cover Social Work England’s core regulatory functions – registration, approval of education and training courses and fitness to practise – and other functions concerned with the operation and oversight of the regulator, including the appointment of advisers, regulatory rules and default powers.
