ADASS Autumn Budget and Spending Review Representation September 2024

The ADASS submission to HM Treasury’s call for evidence ahead of the Autumn Budget on 30 October 2024 and the Spending Review covers a range of areas where this Government could stabilise and invest in adult social care.

We acknowledge the challenging financial outlook set out by the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) for the next few years. This is why in the short-term for 2025/26 we have set out practical steps that Government could take to increase productivity, improve planning between health and social care and to create the conditions for adult social care to thrive. For the Spending Review period 2026/27-2028/29 we have set out a range of proposals for Government consideration that would begin the reform of adult social care.
