Well yes, but fortunately there are many really visionary DASSs already leading transformation with people who draw on care - so lots he can do by working with people rather than directing.
@andrew_harrop @wesstreeting On social care, @wesstreeting shocked at the lack of direct line of sight SoS has of social care - the only way to direct improvements is to write letters to DASSs or through regulation, via a problematic CQC.
