Dilnot & beyond White paper?
Cap of £30,000 or £50,000 for care not housing related costs Higher threshold for savings taper relief < £100,000 Likely need for equity release till cap is reached

Dilnot & beyond An alternative view – Increase minimum savings floor to £50,000 rather than current £14, cheaper! Future generations will have lower housing equity, pensions and higher debts
