Mental Health Services: Standards
- Question
-
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what plans the Government has to review the adequacy of mental health services provided by (a) local authorities and (b) mental health trusts; and if he will make a statement.
- Answer
-
The NHS Long Term Plan sets out how we will reform services over the next ten years, including mental health services. The NHS Long Term Plan Implementation Framework requires sustainability and transformation partnership (STP) areas and integrated care systems to develop five-year plans (‘system plans’) this year, setting out how they will deliver the Long Term Plan commitments up to 2023/24.
NHS England and NHS Improvement regions will play the primary role in supporting systems with the development of their five-year plans. These regions, working with national colleagues, will assure the robustness of local plans against the Long Term Plan’s mental health ambitions.
