Social Care Funding

Proceeding contribution from Karin Smyth (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 17 October 2018. It occurred during Opposition day on Social Care Funding.

My hon. Friend is making an excellent speech and is an expert in this area. She is right; the language we have heard today is all about the challenges and the costs. This is an infrastructure issue, and it needs to be treated as such. Because women lead this workforce, it is not considered an infrastructure issue, and if we did that and changed the language around this, we would have a completely different debate. Does she agree?
