Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what support is provided to people with mental health issues who are serving IPP sentences.
NHS England Health and Justice commissioned healthcare providers deliver both primary and secondary care mental health services to all individuals within the custodial estate, irrespective of their detained status. Each individual will be assessed, their care formulation will be agreed, and appropriate clinical treatment, interventions, and support will be provided. If the individual requires transfer to hospital, the transfer to hospital process will be initiated.
