Legislation

Under Adult Support and Protection legislation, local authorities have a duty to investigate harm. The major piece of legislation is the Adult Support and Protection (Scotland) Act 2007, however there are several other Acts that will be relevant to ASP work. The resources in this category all relate to legislation (and gaining the legal literacy to apply it).
