It needed scrapping. However I don’t agree people ‘save’ money for care costs, if anything in my experience its the opposite they give money away so not to pay! It only becomes an issue when residential care is required and then a ‘property’ is taken into account. More and more families are demanding 24/7 care at home, so as to ‘protect’ their inheritance or as I hear regularly ‘my money’! Some of Social Care problems are because the NHS has cost shunted numerous tasks onto LA’s and it would appear Wes Streeting is being pushed to allow this to happen even more, so the problem will increase, as individuals will be and do pay for what was ‘healthcare’ which leaves the general population in disbelief. Any system needs to be ‘simple’ then costs of arranging/managing a system to each LA is minimal. Ultimately its not the elderly that is increasingly costing LA’s budget problems its other groups requiring care and the Care Act itself which needs amending and tightening. Ultimately the Social Care system should be totally centrally funded and should not be ‘topped’ up by Council Tax. It needs Cross Party Agreement not be the football it is between parties!
