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. |
