To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what estimate he has made of the proportion of people receiving social care in (a) Dartford and (b) Kent who are entitled to public funding to support that care.
The Department does not hold this information in the format requested.
Data collected by the Health and Social Care Information Centre indicates that in 2014/15 there were 4,175 local authority supported long term residential and nursing care users aged 65 years and over supported by Kent County Council. This data is not available for the individual district councils in Kent, of which Dartford is one.
The data can be found at:
http://www.hscic.gov.uk/catalogue/PUB18663
An internal estimate carried out by the Department in 2012/13 estimated that 48% of people aged 65 and over in residential and nursing care in Kent were receiving local authority support at that time.

The Care Quality Commission (CQC) is the independent regulator of health and adult social care providers in England. All providers of regulated activities have to register with the CQC and meet a set of essential requirements of safety and quality. As the CQC is independent, it is responsible for assessing whether providers are meeting the registration requirements and, if the provider is not, for determining the enforcement action it takes against the provider. The CQC has provided the following information:
During 2012-13, the CQC issued fixed penalty notices to two registered providers and one fixed penalty notice to a registered manager (not a provider). No fines were imposed in earlier years. The provision for the CQC to issue fines under the Health and Social Care Act 2008 came into effect in 2010. There was no previous mechanism for the regulator to issue fines to registered persons, as only the courts could do so under the former legislation, the Care Standards Act 2000.
The following tables show the number of cancellations of registration under the Care Standards Act 2000 and the Health and Social Care Act 2008.

Under the Health and Social Care Act 2008, the Care Quality Commission (CQC) does not have responsibility for investigating specific complaints about providers. The CQC has a complaints procedure for complaints about its own processes. The CQC has provided the following information.
The CQC complaints procedure has two stages. Stage 1 of the procedure is intended to be resolved locally and is the responsibility of line management within each CQC directorate. In the event of dissatisfaction with a stage 1 response, complainants can request a stage 2 review by the specialist CQC corporate complaints team. The corporate complaints team will only consider a complaint at stage 2 after it has been through stage 1. If the complainant remains dissatisfied after stage 2, they can raise their concerns with the parliamentary and health service ombudsman. To date, the Parliamentary and Health Service Ombudsman has not upheld any complaints about the CQC.
Prior to April 2011, the CQC did not collect the outcomes for stage 1 complaints centrally and that information is not available. Since April 2011, the CQC corporate complaints team has recorded the outcomes for stage 1 complaints as either 'upheld' or 'not upheld'.

The Care Quality Commission (CQC) is the independent regulator of health and adult social care providers in England.
The CQC has regulatory powers in relation to providers of regulated activities and registered managers. Other than registered managers, it does not have any powers in relation to individual employees of registered providers, but is required to work with other bodies if it has concerns about their competence.
The CQC has provided the following information.
The CQC is unable to provide the information in the format requested because its recording system currently does not distinguish between warning notices that are served to providers and those that are provided to registered managers. A manual search of the records would incur disproportionate cost.
The total number of warning notices that the CQC has issued under the Health and Social Care Act 2008 is shown in the following table:
| Warning
notices | |
| 2010-11 | 17 |
| 2011-12 | 634 |
| 2012-13 | 1,178 |
| Total | 1,829 |
Six providers have been served with enforcement measures, excluding warning notices, after being served a warning notice for a particular outcome. These measures included one cancellation of registration and five notices of proposal to impose conditions on the providers' registration to provide services.
