Care and Support

Proceeding contribution from Lord Lansley (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 11 July 2012. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Care and Support.

I am sorry that the hon. Gentleman has read out the Whips’ question, but he did not listen to the last answer. We are both implementing the universal deferred payment scheme and proposing in the draft Bill that we should legislate for that. We are, as I have made clear, supporting the principle of Dilnot that we should implement a capped-cost model with an extended means test, but we have to demonstrate, as we know, that it needs to be paid for, and if those decisions involve public expenditure, they must necessarily be held for the spending review.
