Dilnot

Asked when we would like to see action, including all party talks, take place now that the Dilnot review had been published, the PMDS (Prime Minister’s Deputy Spokesperson) said that the White Paper was due in spring next year and it would be accompanied by a progress report on funding. She added, in terms of process, the PM had said he would welcome cross party talks on social care and between now and until the White Paper is published, the Department of Health would hold a number of meetings to engage with a wide range stakeholders to work up the proposals that will be included in the White Paper.

Asked if there were any impediments to cross party talks, the PMDS said the PM had said he was happy for cross party talks to take place.

Asked whether the PM would convene cross party talks and when they might happen, the PMDS said we had not set out a schedule or process at this point. She added that today we were just welcoming the report and would look at it in more detail in coming days.

Asked who would convene the talks, the PMDS referred people to the Department of Health.
