Of these, it is estimated that 71% are providing less than 35 hours care per week. The FRS is known to underestimate the number of carers and the true figure is likely to be higher than this.</p><p> </p><p>Information on the number of those being cared for with ‘substantial care needs’ is not available as it is not possible to identify those individuals and their carers in existing survey or administrative datasets.</p> answering member constituency Forest of Dean answering member printed Mr Mark Harper question first answered 05/11/2014 14:52:45 answering member 1520 label Biography information for Mr Mark Harper
