This question was answered on 21st July 2017
The Conservative manifesto contained a commitment that we will improve Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services so that all children with serious conditions will be seen within an appropriate timeframe. We plan to bring forward proposals in the Green Paper on children’s and young people’s mental health by the end of the year.
