Report FSD 14087

 

The report summarised the impact on the Council’s charging policy of the Care Act 2014 and outlined proposed changes to the Non-Residential Charging Policy and the Deferred Payments Scheme.

 

Justine Godbeer was reassured that the consultation documents would be available in easy-read format. She also asked about an easy-read version of the application form for Deferred Payment and this would be investigated.

 

RESOLVED that the recommendations to approve new charges as a result of the Care Act 2014 and engage with service users, their families and carers about the proposed new standard allowances for Disability Related Expenditure be supported.
