Business of the House

Proceeding contribution from Baroness Harman (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 13 November 2008. It occurred during Business statement on Business of the House.
I would certainly like to pay tribute to and welcome the new Member for Glenrothes, who was introduced to the House yesterday. When I was up in Glenrothes, I felt very strongly that it is not only elderly people themselves who are worried about increases in charges, as whole families then become concerned about their older relatives. We all need to recognise that care and support of older people in their own homes—it is called adult social care, but it is really the common-sense issue of looking after elderly people—should move much higher up all our political agendas.
