<p>The Care Act 2014 introduced universal Deferred Payment Agreements (DPAs) so that people should not be forced to sell their homes in their lifetimes to pay for care. The eligibility criteria for DPAs are designed to ensure that they are available to those who would otherwise be at risk of having to sell their homes.</p><p>The Department is continuing to monitor the success of the scheme, and data on the uptake of DPAs across all local authorities will be available later this year.</p>
