Proceeding contribution from Stephen Lloyd (Liberal Democrat) in the House of Commons on Monday, 31 January 2011. It occurred during Debate on bill on Health and Social Care Bill.


Health and Social Care Bill

I agree that the issue of ageing patients is a fundamental challenge. Does my hon. Friend agree that domiciliary care, which is currently delivered through local authorities and primary care trusts, is a vital service that maintains many people's health for the longer term and often prevents unnecessary stays in hospital? Does he agree that appropriate steps should be taken by the Government in the Bill to ensure access to high-quality domiciliary care for all?
