<p>The Department has published the Care and Support Statutory Guidance, which provides
information on what constitutes abuse or neglect. The list is not intended to be exhaustive,
rather it provides guidance on the sort of behaviour which could give rise to a safeguarding
concern. It includes physical, domestic, sexual, psychological, discriminatory, financial
and material abuse. Local authorities should not limit their view of what constitutes
abuse and should consider the circumstances of the individual’s case.</p>
