In line with the cost of care guidance, we have submitted the following documents to the DHSC:
The DHSC has advised local authorities that they should now publish their submissions by 1 February 2023.

Our position has been that whilst the surveys have provided useful information about the costs of services, the data is not sufficient to act directly as a guide to future fee levels.
Our understanding is that a similar conclusion was reached by many other local authorities both regionally and nationally.
If you have queries about any of these documents, please let us know by email to commissioning@northtyneside.gov.uk
