AnnotationThe report of the Wanless Social Care Review, "Securing good care for older people: taking a long-term view" (King's Fund, 2006) has been greatly welcomed by the social care sector in England. Bearing in mind that the government has not acted on recommendations of the Royal Commission on Long-Term Care, the author of this article wonders how much of what this new report recommends will be adopted. Sir Derek Wanless points to the insufficient funding of social care: not only can more funding be afforded, we also have no choice but to pay. (RH).
