The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, when his Department plans to publish the report on the adult social care relative needs formula on the Adult Social Care Policy Research Unit Website.

Answered by Ashley Dalton

The report on the adult social care relative needs formula was published on the Adult Social Care Policy Research Unit’s website in June 2025.

The Department funds independent research through its research delivery arm, the National Institute of Health and Care Research (NIHR).

The publication of research is led by the research team. The views expressed in the outputs of the research are those of the authors and not necessarily those of the NIHR or the Department.
