Personal Care at Home Bill

My Lords, I understand the noble Baroness’s predicament. None the less, I am not persuaded by her argument. Whatever the next Government’s hue, they are going to have to have the political capacity to, I hope, lead a consensus towards some very difficult decisions. A great deal of historical baggage will have to be ditched in order to come up with a solution which is in the best interest of those older people who are in most need and least financially capable of paying for their own care.
