Proceeding contribution from Patricia Hewitt (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 14 July 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Care and Support (Reform).


Care and Support (Reform)

I warmly welcome the substance of my right hon. Friend's statement and the spirit in which he made it. As the Government take forward the debate on the three funding options that they have put forward, can he assure me that they will also continue to build on the excellent work that has been done with personal budgets and direct payments so that people receiving help with their care needs will continue to get as much choice and control as possible over the way those services are given to them?
