The level of the minimum income guarantee is reviewed on an annual basis and it was increased on 6 April 2022 in line with inflation. The revised rates are set out in The Care and Support (Charging and Assessment of Resources) (Amendment) Regulations 2022.</p><p>From October 2023, the Government is introducing a cap on care costs and more generous means testing limits to allow more people to receive financial support with the cost of their care. The £86,000 cap on personal care costs is universal, regardless of an individual’s age, region or wealth. This will ensure that no-one will face unpredictable or unlimited care costs.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency Chichester answering member printed Gillian Keegan question first answered 07/06/2022 14:05:27 answering member 4680 label Biography information for Gillian Keegan
