Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what progress has been made in achieving parity of esteem for mental health services.
This question was answered on 2nd June 2015
Good mental health is very important to this Government. Having legislated for parity of esteem, this Government will take mental health as seriously as physical health and hold the National Health Service to account for making progress towards parity of esteem. We have committed to introducing new access and waiting standards and will ensure these are delivered.
