Health and Social Care Secretary Matt Hancock to face Lords questions
What are the main challenges for funding social care? Will the Green Paper address these challenges, and when will it be published? Will any new funding model for social care require more public money?
These are among the questions the House of Lords Economic Affairs Committee will be asking Matt Hancock MP, Secretary of State for Health and Social Care and Jonathan Marron, Director General of Community and Social Care, Department of Health and Social Care, at 3.35pm on Tuesday 30 April 2019.
They will be giving evidence to the Committee's inquiry into the funding of social care in England.
Other topics likely to be covered in this session are:
- Mandatory social insurance, private insurance and auto-enrolment
- Social care workforce
- Political progress and cross-party initiatives
- Regional differences in quality and availability of social care
This evidence session, which is open to the public, will start at 3.35pm on Tuesday 29 April 2019 in Committee Room 1 of the House of Lords.
