Earl Russell

asked Her Majesty's Government:

What information or policy commitment was announced for the first time in Building a Better Britain for Older People. [HL445]

Baroness Hollis of Heigham

Building a Better Britain for Older People describes some of the major initiatives the Government have already introduced to improve lives for older people and sets out our priorities for effective cross-government action in the future. The publication is an important contribution to the debate started by the Inter-Ministerial Group on Older People with older people and the groups that represent them.
