Independent Commission into Adult Social Care
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, when next year he expects Baroness Casey of Blackstock DBE CB to report on the first phase of her independent commission into adult social care.
Answered by Stephen Kinnock
The independent commission, chaired by Baroness Louise Casey, has begun its work on how to build a social care system fit for the future, and will first report in 2026.
The commission is independent, and Baroness Casey therefore has the autonomy to decide when in 2026 she reports on the first phase. Work implementing the commission’s recommendations will then be able to begin following publication.
