Explore and implement fundamental reforms for social care funding and delivery methods
Recommendation
The next Government must ensure that it explores all options for fundamental reform of funding and delivery of social care services and implements reforms that address the underlying causes of the acute funding and delivery pressures that local authorities are currently facing. The Government should also explore how the structure of local authorities, including for example moving to unitary authorities, may alleviate financial pressures currently facing local authorities.
