Proceeding contribution from Mark Reckless (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Monday, 16 May 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Armed Forces Covenant.
Armed Forces Covenant
We have an unusually high proportion of veterans in the Medway towns, and one of our concerns is that too often they fall between the cracks when it comes to mental health services. I am delighted by what the Secretary of State has said about plans for proactive follow-up for cases of post-traumatic stress disorder; it might help those who might not otherwise present with symptoms. Is there more we can do to work with GPs to ensure that they consider whether someone coming into the surgery might be ex-forces and suffering from PTSD?
