The Liberal Democrats highlighted that the proposed rise in National Insurance should not affect social care, as private care providers remain unsupported despite NHS funding.
Care England warned that the adult social care sector faces unprecedented danger due to not receiving adequate financial support from the National Insurance rise, threatening closures.
Mike Padgham stated that rising wages and National Insurance costs could significantly increase operational expenses for care homes, potentially leading to higher fees for residents.
Padgham expressed that without matching extra funding for care commissioners, many providers are at risk of going out of business due to increased financial pressures.
