This depends on the exact circumstances of the case, taking into account the revised entitlement compared to the monies already received. All future payments will also be adjusted to account for the revisions to the award. Provisions are in place to make arrears payments to customers suffering financial hardship.</p> answering member constituency Battersea answering member printed Jane Ellison question first answered 17/10/2016 16:49:14 answering member 3918 label Biography information for Jane Ellison

Access to adult social care is based on the level of need an adult has and not on the number of users.</p><p>In April 2015, the Care Act 2014 introduced a national eligibility criteria for access to adult social care. The Act requires that local authorities must meet the needs of any adult whose needs meet this national criteria. Authorities cannot restrict eligibility beyond this threshold. This ensures that the most vulnerable adults have their eligible needs met.</p> answering member constituency Warrington South answering member printed David Mowat question first answered 17/10/2016 15:59:40 answering member 4080 label Biography information for David Mowat
