Carers: Finance
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what decision his Department has made on the use of the £6 billion of funding allocated for the implementation of phase 2 of the Care Act 2014 now that the implementation of that phase has been postponed.
- Answer
-
The Government recognises that social care is vital to enabling people to live healthy and independent lives.
Funding decisions for 2016/17 onwards, including on adult social care, are subject to the forthcoming Spending Review.
Officials in the Department and across government are working hard to understand pressures on the care system and will consider adult social care expenditure and future demand as part of this process.
