A Bill to establish a publicly owned body to provide insurance for home owners at cost against selling their homes to pay for elderly social care; and for connected purposes
House of Lords
29 April 2022
This bill would create a publicly owned insurance body to cover the risk that homeowners might have to sell their home to pay for elderly social care. The insurance would be sold at cost, not for profit, with the aim of helping people stay in their homes while ensuring care costs can be funded. It is framed as a connected measure to housing and healthcare policy.
The bill is at its second reading in the House of Commons. It originated in the Lords and would proceed through further stages if it advances.
