The Administrative Court allowed the neighboring municipality to recover social care costs paid by the social board for a period when the elderly person's official residence was legally established there. The social board had paid the daughter for care during 1988-1990, but the High Administrative Court determined the official residence shifted to the neighbor's municipality in early 1989. Consequently, the court ruled that the neighboring municipality, not the original payer, was entitled to the care support for that specific period.

A:n sosiaalilautakunta oli maksanut vanhuksen kotihoidon

tukea vanhusta hoitaneelle tyttärelle ajalta 1.4.1988 -

30.9.1990. Vanhus oli muuttanut asumaan tyttärensä luokse

naapurikuntaan B kesällä 1988. KHO:n päätöksellä 26.9.1990

vanhuksen varsinaisen asunnon ja kodin katsottiin olleen

1.1.1989 tässä naapurikunnassa.

Lääninoikeus katsoi, että A:n sosiaalilautakunnan järjestettyä

vanhuksen tarvitseman kotipalvelun naapurikunta B, jossa

oli hänen väestökirjalain mukainen kotipaikkansa, oli saanut

perusteetonta etua ja velvoitti tuon kunnan korvaamaan ajalta

1.1.1989 - 30.9.1990 maksetun kotihoidon tuen tukea maksaneelle

kunnalle.
