Is Key decision?: Yes
Is subject to call in?: Yes
To approve the proposed changes in fees and
charges for inhouse community care services, plus meals, transport
and laundry services for 2024/25
The Corporate Director Health & Adult
Services in consultation with the executive member for Health and
Adult Services has approved the new charging rates as outlined
below to be effective from 8 April 2024. A copy of the report
considered is attached.
The recommendation will help the council to
recover inflationary cost rises in adult social care where
appropriate.
The option of not increasing charges has been
discounted as this would be inconsistent with the cost increases
paid to providers and would mean that the council incurred more of
that cost. No increase would also be inconsistent with the
Council’s Fees and Charges Strategy.
