Health and Care Bill

Proceeding contribution from Kevin Hollinrake (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 14 July 2021. It occurred during Debate on bills on Health and Care Bill.

My right hon. Friend has set out his plans to introduce a plan for social care by the end of the year, and I know that he is looking for a cross-party solution. In a joint inquiry by two Select Committees—the Housing, Communities and Local Government Committee and the Health and Social Care Committee—one of the recommendations was a system with a German-style social care premium. Would that potentially feature in

his recommendations, and does he agree that that is a much fairer system than a Dilnot-style system that incentivises people to spend their assets or move them somewhere where they cannot be touched?
