“The Court of Appeal gave guidance as to how to assess whether a local authority had (i) complied with its statutory duty to provide accommodation and social care services to adults in its area who, by reason of age, illness, disability or any other circumstances, were in need of care and attention which was not otherwise available to them, and (ii) followed guidance contained in a local authority circular, by having ‘due regard’ to the actual costs of providing care and other local factors.”
