Stockport Fair Cost of Care Report and Market Sustainability Plan

As part of the government’s adult social care reform agenda, all local authorities are required to complete a fair cost of care exercise to arrive at a shared understanding with providers of the local cost of providing care. In addition, authorities are required to publish a Market Sustainability Plan detailing how they plan to move towards a fair cost of care (where this is not already being paid) over the next three years. This is a report on Stockport’s fair cost of care exercise with the mandated Fair Cost of Care Report and Market Sustainability Plan which is required to be published on the Council’s website by 14 October 2022.
