SUPPORTING PEOPLE PROGRAMME

That this House is concerned by the Government's plans to cut the grant for the Supporting People programme by five per cent. in 2005-06, including by 6.28 per cent. in Somerset alone; believes that this will undermine care standards for many elderly and vulnerable people; and calls upon the Government urgently to reconsider these cuts and those planned for 2006-07 and 2007-08.
