Health Secretary: £5.4 billion guaranteed for social care

Health Secretary Sajid Javid guarantees £5.4 billion will be allocated to adult social care as part of the £36 billion raised by an increase in National Insurance contributions.

He wishes he "could wave a wand" and start immediately, but is confident the legislation will get through parliament.
