Personalisation and the social care 'revolution': future options for the reform of public services
This paper is a joint report from the University of Birmingham, In Control and The Centre for Welfare Reform. It discusses the background to personal budgets in social care and introduces the concept of them as 'Conditional Resource Entitlements' (CREs) - a means of targeting resources towards those who are eligible, but with specific conditions attached. The authors suggest personal budgets, if framed as a form of CRE, can form part of a wider strategy for welfare reform which places emphasis on promoting citizenship and personal responsibility.
