Saga welcomes 'certainty' of care cap

Saving people from catastrophic costs of care is an important principle, as is the fairer sharing of cost between the individual and the state.

Changing the amount people can have before they pay all cost from GBP23,000 to GBP123,000 will be welcomed by many in middle Britain who have done the right thing and saved for their older age.

The disappointment comes in the delay in implementing the reforms. Action this day is what Britain needs.
