Shadow minister calls for quicker action on social care
The shadow health secretary has urged Wes Streeting to speed up the process for social care reforms. Mr Streeting came under fire when he revealed the final report from the social care review would not take place until 2028.
"I would encourage the Secretary of State Wes Streeting to be more ambitious, braver and to speed up that process and get those cross-party discussions going as swiftly as possible," Mr Argar said.
