NHS England, working with other arm’s length bodies, has prepared a response to recommendations from the Commission on Adult Psychiatric Care in England. The response will be published in due course.

Inappropriate out-of-area placements are unacceptable and the Government has committed to eliminate these in non-specialist, acute mental health care by 2020/21.
