ADASS LATEST:
ADASS PRESIDENT JOHN
Dixon greeted today’s (Monday May 12) launch of a widespread
consultation prior to the Government’s preparation of its Green
Paper on financing adult social care, as `the end of the beginning’
of a long campaign designed to put the issue on a more equitable and
sustainable basis.
“ADASS and others have long called
for the debate to be opened up in this way … It is a measure of
the rising importance of adult social care in England that the
Government is committing so much time and energy to this Green
paper,” he said.
John shared a platform with Health
Secretary Alan Johnson and Care Minister Ivan Lewis to help get the
national debate started.
