PARLIAMENTARY EARLY DAY MOTION
ROYAL COMMISSION ON LONG TERM CARE FOR THE ELDERLY (9 March 1999)

Motion Details

That this House congratulates the Government for its commitment to tackling the inequalities and inefficiencies of the present system of funding long-term care for older people; commends the Royal Commission on Long-Term Care for reporting within 14 months after consultation with over 2,000 organisations and experts in the field as well as members of the public; and joins with Age Concern in calling on the Government to produce a clear timetable for introducing long overdue changes to the system in recognition of the fact that older people do not have the time to wait for further debate.
