Care Bill [Lords]

Proceeding contribution from Hazel Blears (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 16 December 2013. It occurred during Debate on bills on Care Bill [Lords].

The debate this evening has been fabulous and has engaged people from across the House on one of the biggest challenges we face. Earlier in the debate I asked the Secretary of State whether, on reflection, he thought that he could have been more ambitious about the integration of health and social care. The costs to our system are now unsustainable, and this was an opportunity to seize the moment. The Minister has tinkered around the edges of integration, so may I press him to be more ambitious, to think bigger and to be more committed to greater integration that will benefit us all?
