Personal Care at Home Bill

I am grateful to the hon. Gentleman for that response. I think that it is right that local authorities should be able to make decisions about which services are appropriate, but they must do so in conjunction with other relevant care partners. I thank hon. Members for raising these issues to do with reablement. I have spoken at length because it is important that the whole House understands our intent and how the proposal will operate. All the details will be addressed more fully in the guidance accompanying the regulations, and I hope that what I have said will persuade the hon. Member for Eddisbury to withdraw his amendments.
