Proceeding contribution from Phil Hope (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 12 January 2010. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee of the Whole House (HC) on Personal Care at Home Bill.


Personal Care at Home Bill

The key thrust of the Bill""is to enable, support and encourage more people to avoid or delay entering residential accommodation."" The right hon. Gentleman has rightly described one particular group of beneficiaries—those people who might switch. I understand that that is in the impact assessment. However, there is another much wider group of people whom we will help to avoid or delay entering residential accommodation.
