Minister welcomes 'real consensus' on social care bill proposals

The Deputy Minister for Children and Social Services, Gwenda Thomas, has said there is a "real consensus" on the "broad proposals" in the Social Care Bill (Wales) which is due to be brought forward in January.

She said she was pleased that the response to the proposals about the draft Bill - now being re-named the Social Services and Well-being (Wales) Bill - was extremely constructive.

She said: "I have been pleased to find that there is a real consensus for our broad proposals to safeguard and protect. This level of public engagement is absolutely critical to the success of our plans."

She added: "I am grateful for the support shown by individuals and organisations from across Wales in this Bill and it shows once again the important part that social services and social care play in all of our lives."
