Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, when he plans to publish a further review of the Carers’ Action Plan 2018-2020; and whether that review plans to assess the needs of carers of people living with dementia.

We plan to publish a final report this summer on the Cross-Government Carers Action Plan following its conclusion. The report will consider all commitments and the actions taken.

Improving the lives of people living with dementia is a top priority for this Government. We are delivering the Challenge on Dementia 2020 to make England the best country in the world for dementia care.

We will be setting out our plans on dementia for England for the period 2020-2025 later this year.
