Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what proportion of places for children and adolescents receiving mental health services are publicly funded; and what proportion of such places are provided by (a) private and (b) public sector healthcare institutions.
NHS England holds only information on beds for children and adolescents receiving mental health services that are funded by the National Health Service (ie publicly funded). The NHS commissions 474 beds for children and adolescents receiving mental health services from independent providers and 783 beds from the NHS.
