Proceeding contribution from Clive Betts (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 28 June 2018. It occurred during Select Committee statement on Adult Social Care: Long-term Funding.


Adult Social Care: Long-term Funding

It is about getting a well-paid, well-trained workforce. NHS staff who do a similar job get paid about 29% more. I am not saying they are well paid, but clearly social care staff are not well paid. That funding gap has to be addressed and people have to be properly paid. The Committees signed up to the Unison charter for the workforce in social care.
