Social Services: Royal Commissions

Question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what assessment he has made of the potential merits of establishing a royal commission on social care.

Answer

The Government is determined to tackle the challenges facing adult social care. We want everyone to live an independent, dignified life. That is why we will build consensus on the long-term reform needed to create a National Care Service. We will engage with a range of stakeholders, including cross-party and people with lived experience. We will set out more detail of our priorities for adult social care in due course.
