Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what discussions she has had with her counterparts in the devolved administrations on ensuring (a) a consistent approach and (b) the applicability of the NHS National Review to ADHD services.
My Rt hon. Friend, the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care has regular discussions on a wide range of matters, with a wide range of people. NHS England is establishing a new attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) taskforce alongside the Government, to improve care for people living with the condition. The new taskforce will bring together expertise from across a broad range of sectors, including the National Health Service, education, and justice, to better understand the challenges affecting people with ADHD, and help provide a joined-up approach in response to concerns around rising demand for assessments and support. NHS England will continue to engage widely throughout the process, and will engage with the devolved administrations as appropriate.
