The government is transforming adult social care data so that we can deliver better, joined-up care to people who draw on care and support. You can learn more about this in Care data matters: a roadmap for better data for adult social care. As part of this, from April 2023 the government is introducing a national mandatory person-level data collection – the Client-Level Data collection (CLD). CLD will replace the existing annual Short and Long Term (SALT) Support data collected by local authorities. CLD will be added to the single data list and will be mandatory for all local authorities from April 2023. View the specification, guidance and further information on CLD.
