Proposed publicly-funded social care systems in Great Britain
A National Care Service (NCS) is a proposed publicly funded system of social care for use in either England, Scotland or Wales. There have been different proposals for each of the three countries of the United Kingdom. A system in England was partially introduced by the Labour government of Gordon Brown in 2010 but abandoned soon after when the coalition government of David Cameron and Nick Clegg came to power in May 2010. Similar to the National Health Service, it would be free at the point of need and paid for through taxation.
