Liz Kendall responds to the NAO’s report on adult social care in England

Liz Kendall MP, Labour’s Shadow Social Care Minister, responding to the National Audit Office’s report on adult social care in England, said:

“This report highlights what we have known for a long while - that long-term reform for social care is needed as an urgent priority.

“The Prime Minister promised to fix the crisis in social care on the steps of Downing Street in July 2019 - but eighteen months later this plan is still nowhere to be seen.

“The Government must bring forward their plans for reforming social care, and ensure that these vital services get the support and resources they so desperately need."
