Recommendation 14
14
Deferred
Funding for adult social care fair pay and career pathway plans remains unclear.
Conclusion
We further welcome plans to establish the Adult Social Care Fair Pay Agreement and improve career pathways. However, the Government needs to set out how these measures will be funded, as providers and local government cannot afford to fund them. (Conclusion, Paragraph 86)
Government Response Summary
The government states that the independent Casey Commission has the autonomy to decide how best to examine models of care and funding flows needed for a sustainable system, thereby deflecting the request to set out funding details for the Adult Social Care Fair Pay Agreement and career pathways.
