Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what progress he has made on creating a National Care Service.
Answered by Stephen Kinnock - Minister of State (Department of Health and Social Care)
The Government is launching an independent commission into adult social care as part of our critical first steps towards delivering a National Care Service.
Chaired by Baroness Casey of Blackstock, the Commission will start a national conversation about what people expect from adult social care, setting us on the road to fundamental reform that will build a social care system fit for the future.
