Oral Answers to Questions

Debate between Stephen Kinnock and Robin Swann

Tuesday 6th May 2025 Commons Chamber

[Stephen Kinnock]

We have, in fact, relaxed the rules on ARRS so that a mental health worker can be employed by the PCN. My hon. Friend is absolutely right that that is an important part of stepping from hospital to community, but there is more we can do on that. We continue to do whatever we can to ensure that mental health and GP surgeries are actively integrating.

[Robin Swann (South Antrim) (UUP)]

Getting It Right First Time is a clinician-led programme that leads on improvement and transformation. Can the Secretary State give reassurance that in any restructuring of NHS England, that programme will not just be continued, but expanded and still available to the devolved Administrations?
