Proceeding contribution from Joan Humble (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 very much welcome the clarity and certainty that the Secretary of State today offers care services users. Will he ensure that the debate on the options for payment also covers the sorts of services that should be available as part of the universal option so that individuals know who is paying for their care and what it entails? Above all, they should be in control of their care and managing their own budgets.
