摘要

Hampshire CC is calling for action to tackle the 'perceived unfairness and complexity' of the care system for older and disabled people, following its own inquiry into the future of the system. The commission's report pro- poses an increase in the threshold for means testing from the current level of ￡22,250 to ￡50,000 for people with sav-ings and capital, and recognition that the workforce of the future will need new skills and abilities.
