A COMMITTEE tasked with advising the government on the crisis in social care has said in its annual report that the situation has deteriorated further and its recommendations have been ignored.
The Migration Advisory Committee (MAC) reported that there are around 70,000 more vacancies in social care now than before the pandemic.
This makes the overall vacancy rate 11.1 per cent, with the report indicating that much is due to Brexit and the ending of free movement.
