Section four Appendices Appendix Two Member overview In the first annual report of the UK NPM, we profiled each of the NPM members, setting out detailed information on their mandate, structure and methodology. Rather than replicate that information in subsequent annual reports, we have set out below a short description of each member, as a reminder. We have also included details of any significant changes during 2013–14. Detailed information about each member can be found in our first annual report, the online database of UK NPM members, or the annual reports or websites of the individual members.49 Care and Social Services Inspectorate Wales CSSIW regulates and inspects all social care services in Wales. This includes secure accommodation where children are placed either for their offending behaviour or because they pose a significant risk to themselves or others. CSSIW also monitors the deprivation of liberty safeguards during its regular inspections of adult care homes and reports annually to the Welsh Ministers on the operation of the safeguards. www.cssiw.org.uk Care Inspectorate Established by the Public Services Reform (Scotland) Act 2010, the Care Inspectorate is the independent scrutiny and improvement body for social work and social care and support services for people of all ages. The Inspectorate was established in April 2011 from three previously existing scrutiny bodies: the Scottish Commission for the Regulation of Care (Care Commission) for care services; the Social Work Inspection Agency (SWIA) which carried out strategic inspections of social work services in the community, and a directorate of Her Majesty’s Inspectorate of Education (HMIE) which carried out joint inspections of services to protect children. As part of its new remit, the Care Inspectorate regulates secure homes for children and young people as well as other residential services. http://www.scswis.com/ Care Quality Commission CQC is an independent statutory organisation responsible for monitoring, inspecting and regulating health and adult social care services in England, to make sure they meet fundamental standards of quality and safety. CQC also monitors the operation of the Mental Health Act 1983, including those who are detained under mental health law. CQC carries out inspections of health care in prisons and immigration detention alongside Her Majesty’s Inspectorate of Prisons (HMI Prisons) and participates in inspections of police custody alongside HMI Prisons and Her Majesty’s Inspectorate of Constabulary. http://www.cqc.org.uk/ 49 The online database of UK NPM members, compiled by the Human Rights Implementation Centre at the University of Bristol in association with the members themselves, is available at http://www.bristol.ac.uk/law/research/centres-themes/hric/ hricnpmukdatabase/index.html.
