Adult Care Provision

County Councillor Charlotte Bailey reported upon proposals to significantly reduce Adult Care Services in the district, such reductions being directly attributable to the lack of funds. It was commented that Hampshire County Council are spending some £40 million on new premises, such money could be better spent on maintaining the current level of Adult Care Services. Councillor Bailey advised that these issues are being examined by the Regulatory Committee and many questions would be raised.
