Impact Of The Health Market On Community Care

EDM number 260 in 1994-95, proposed by David Hinchliffe on 13/12/1994.

That this House notes with concern the results of a recent survey of Directors of Social Services in England undertaken by the Labour Party which showed that 43 of the 80 councils that responded gave examples of cost-shunting from health to local authorities; further notes that a third of these authorities expressed particular disquiet about the fact that the care of terminally ill people, including in one case a patient in a coma, is being passed to councils, and that the care subsequently being provided is means-tested and inappropriate in many instances; and calls upon the Government to ensure that health authorities and trusts fulfil their responsibilities to patients set out in existing guidelines on continuing and palliative care and further to recognise that a key factor in the care funding crisis is the way the health market is pushing NHS responsibilities on to local councils. (Relevant registered interest declared)
