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 the social care green paper.
This question was answered on 7th January 2019
As an ageing society, we need to reach a longer-term sustainable settlement for social care. Given wider events, and because we recognise that parliamentary colleagues will wish to engage thoroughly in the debate following publication, it was not possible to publish the Adult Social Care Green Paper by the end of 2018. The Government is committed to publishing it at the earliest opportunity this year.
