Lord Markham (Con)
I believe that the House is very aware of our plan for patients. It is very much the focus of my activity. I was just talking to the NHS and the CFO this morning on where we are on the recovery of the elective treatments and the plan for that, so it is very much in the front of our minds.
Lord Teverson (LD)
My Lords, I very much welcome the Government’s initiative on environmental prescribing, particularly for depression and mental illness. Will the Minister say what assessments they have made of the success of that programme so far, and whether they will promote it further?
Lord Markham (Con)
On this occasion, that is probably a question about which I need to write back to the noble Lord to give him the detail on it.
