No. Where it is more specific, the more specific the health or social care body will have to be in responding. However, given the nature of the power, the FTT should be “free to make constructive recommendations” and “how specific it feels it can be is essentially a matter for the FTT”, and it is permissible to for example recommend a future assessment: VS and RS v Hampshire CC [2021] UKUT 187 (AAC) #46-47, 57.
