On Friday, the Department of Health produced a press release headed, ““End of the ‘Prozac nation’—more counselling, more therapy””. It trumpeted a ““ground-breaking initiative””, ““a major new programme””. What we get is a couple of pilot schemes, while in Oxfordshire, Cambridgeshire and other places around the country that we have heard about, front-line mental health services are being cut. Is that not another case of the Department of Health being out of touch with what is happening on the ground?

In welcoming the Minister to his new post, may I remind him that early in 2004, the then Health Minister, the right hon. Member for Barrow and Furness (Mr. Hutton), told me that an 80-week waiting list for a child to access psychological services was unacceptable? The Cumbria and Lancashire strategic health authority confirmed in March that the waiting time was now 93 weeks, which many would regard as unbearable. I have been told that action has been taken to address that deficit, so will the Minister confirm that he will do everything possible to speed up all the necessary measures to reduce that totally unacceptable waiting period?
