The Cabinet Member considered a report which proposed that for 2024-25 the Standard Charge for Local Authority Older People residential care homes be increased from £840.60 to £889.94 for mainstream beds and from £990.85 to £1,058.85 for dementia beds. For residents placed by the authority into its own Local Authority Homes the effective date for the new rates would be 24th June 2024 and for residents placed in the authority’s homes by other Local Authorities the effective date for the new charges to those authorities was the 8th of April 2024. It was noted that adults in residential accommodation were required to contribute to the cost of their care. Where they had sufficient resources they were required to pay the full cost of their accommodation, known as the Standard Charge, which was calculated annually based on the full cost to the authority of providing the accommodation. RESOLVED that the Standard Charge for Local Authority Older People residential care homes be increased from £840.60 to £889.94 for mainstream beds and from £990.85 to £1,058.85 for dementia beds.
Councillors must say when they have a personal link to something being discussed, such as a job, a property or a family member. A prejudicial interest is one strong enough that the councillor usually leaves the room and takes no part.
