Community Care

EDM number 26 in 1994-95, proposed by Archy Kirkwood on 16/11/1994.

That this House, recognising the progress that has already been made in successfully implementing the policy of community care by local authorities, calls on Her Majesty's Government to resolve as a matter of urgency the difficulties currently being experienced by the social service and social work departments in coping with the transitional arrangements to implement the policy by immediately making good the grant unilaterally withdrawn from many authorities, increasing the finance available for the proper implementation of community care, removing the 85 per cent. restriction on monies to be spent in the independent sector and reviewing the circumstances in which the NHS continues to care for patients with long term physical and mental health care needs.

This motion has been signed by a total of 29 MPs.
