Available to LG Inform Plus subscribers, it provides information on what current legislation gives English and Welsh councils the power to do and what it requires them to do in law. Advanced searching and filtering options make it easy to find specific powers and duties based on legislation, business function and keyword, and results are easily exported in commonly used formats.

This is the percentage of deaths of all ages registered that are reported as taking place in a person's home. This includes deaths due to external causes and all other causes of death.

‘Own residence’ is a person’s usual place of residence, excluding care homes or other establishments where people live communally, for example monasteries, hostels, prisons and children’s homes. It is important to recognise that the ‘own residence’ group does not include the many very old people who die in a care home and who may have been long-term residents of that care home.
