The Social Justice and Regeneration Committee

Housing for older people

In the summer of 2003 the newly formed Social Justice and Regeneration Committee chose "Housing for Older People" as the topic for its first policy review. This was partly due to the wide ranging debate being conducted with the Welsh Assembly Government's "Strategy for Older People in Wales" The topic was approached with the view that any civilised society should ensure that its older citizens live in comfort and security and as independently as their health allows.
