Social Services: Standards
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps he is taking to improve social care.
Answered by Stephen Kinnock
We are committed to creating a National Care Service and Baroness Casey’s Independent Commission will soon set out recommendations to deliver this.
We are also improving support for adult social care, including making available £4.6 billion in additional funding in 28/29, introducing a fair pay agreement for workers, strengthening support for unpaid carers, and providing £723 million to help disabled people adapt their homes.
