Beveridge suggested the best way to tacke these problems was for the Government to develop and fund a wide range of health, social care, education, and social security services. A Nation Health Service was one of his key proposals, which was widely supported and lead to a range of health, social care and welfare services being set up across the country.
the decades to follow saw the state become the major source of funding for and the biggest provider of health and social care services that the united kingdom had ever seen.
Due to large financal increase charges for dentistry, prescriptions and glasses were introduced in the 1950's. More fundamental reforems were needed, however to contain the cost of providing comprehensive health, social care and education services.
the NHS, local governments and the education ststem all underwent successive reorganisation during the 1960s and 70s in an attempt to control the cost and make the provision of the care services more efficient.
