HOUSING PLANS FOR ELDERLY ENDORSED
****
THE SOCIAL WELFARE ADVISORY COMMITTEE (SWAC) AT A MEETING TODAY (THURSDAY) CONSIDERED A COMPREHENSIVE PAPER ON THE IMPLEMENTATION PLAN ON HOUSING FOR THE ELDERLY.
THE MEETING REAFFIRMED THE PRESENT POLICY OF ENCOURAGING FAMILIES TO TAKE CARE OF THEIR ELDERLY MEMBERS AND TO PROVIDE RESIDENTIAL SERVICES TO ELDERLY PEOPLE WHO CANNOT BE ADEQUATELY HOUSED AND CARED FOR WITHIN THEIR FAMILIES..
IN THIS CONNECTION, MEMBERS STRESSED THAT IT WAS IMPORTANT FOR ALL GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENTS TO ENSURE THAT THE IR POLICIES WERE CONSISTENT AND CONTRIBUTED TOWARDS THE ACHIEVEMENT OF THIS OBJECTIVE.
A CO-ORDINATED APPROACH IN THE PROVISION OF HOUSING TO THE ELDERLY AMONG GOVERNMENT DEPARTMENTS AND WELFARE AGENCIES WAS ENDORSED.
