Social Services: Costs
Asked by: Gavin Williamson (Conservative - Stone, Great Wyrley and Penkridge) Friday 19th September 2025 Question to the Department of Health and Social Care: To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps his Department is taking assist councils to reduce the cost of social care. Answered by Stephen Kinnock - Minister of State (Department of Health and Social Care) The Government recognises challenges facing adult social care and is taking action to improve the system and enable more people to live independently for longer. While local authorities are best placed to plan and deliver care and support that meet the current and future needs of their populations, we are supporting them to deliver high quality and person-centred care. In 2025/26, to enable local authorities to deliver key services such as adult social care, we made available up to £3.7 billion of additional funding for social care authorities, which included an £880 million increase in the Social Care Grant. We are providing £172 million across this and the last financial year, for around 15,000 home adaptations. We will support commissioners and care providers to adopt preventative care technologies by introducing new national standards and trusted guidance. To support efficiency and the delivery of care, we are also developing a new national data infrastructure for adult social care to lay the foundations for near real-time visibility of information across health and care services. We have also launched the Independent Commission on Adult Social Care, chaired by Baroness Casey, to lead a national conversation and consider how to best create a fair and affordable adult social care system. |

Social Services: Cost Effectiveness
Asked by: Gavin Williamson (Conservative - Stone, Great Wyrley and Penkridge) Friday 19th September 2025 Question to the Department of Health and Social Care: To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what steps he is taking to ensure that social care providers provide value for money to (a) the public purse and (b) residents. Answered by Stephen Kinnock - Minister of State (Department of Health and Social Care) Under the Care Act 2014, local authorities are tasked with the duty to shape their care markets to meet the diverse needs of all local people. This includes working closely with local providers to achieve a balance of quality, effectiveness and value for money that ensures that people who draw on care have a choice of appropriate and high-quality care services in their local area.
To ensure high standards of care, local authorities are assessed by the Care Quality Commission in how well they are delivering their duties under Part 1 of the Care Act 2014.
