Proceeding contribution from Edward O'Hara (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 congratulate my right hon. Friend on introducing this long overdue Green Paper, and on his obvious commitment to the subject in his presentation and answering of questions today. May I put it to him that one part of his statement is not negotiable—is not an option? He talks about improving the quality and status of care staff, and without that, we will have a framework, not a system that delivers a national care service.
