“we are encouraged by the focus on the social care sector at the Liberal Democrat and Labour Party conferences, recognising the vital importance of the sector to millions of individuals and families across the UK. It is great to see the care system at the forefront of their political agendas.”
What Karolina Gerlich has said
“The government's decision to pass the NIC Bill without exempting the social care sector is both irresponsible and short-sighted. This policy imposes a substantial financial burden on a sector already in crisis, jeopardising the livelihoods of dedicated care workers and the essential services they provide. We urge the government to reconsider this approach and implement measures that protect and support the social care workforce and the vulnerable individuals they care for.”
