Proceeding contribution from Hywel Williams (Plaid Cymru) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 29 October 2009. It occurred during Debate on Social Care Green Paper.


Social Care Green Paper

The principle behind the assessments for attendance allowance and disability living allowance is self-assessment, in that the applicant fills in the form. Presumably, any new system would require the involvement of some professional help, so there might be a difference in principle in any new system.
