To approve the proposed changes in fees and
charges for in-house community care services, plus meals,
transport, laundry and other services for 2026/27
Approval has been given for the proposed
changes in fees and charges that individuals pay towards the costs
of NYC care services, plus deferred payments, meals, transport,
laundry and background support services for 2026/27.
Each year the revised maximum charges to users
of our in-house services are agreed based on the uprating of
existing charges.
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.
