| Annotation | Age Concern and Help the Aged comment on the consultation by the Department of Health (DH) on its proposals to define more clearly ways that individual in receipt of personal budgets (PBs) in lieu of care services are assessed and charged for a financial contribution. Concern is expressed that some service users could be charged £20 more per week, and in some circumstances be charged for services that are currently free or highly subsidised. (RH). |
