Clause 24
Mental Health Bill [Lords]
12:15 pm
John Pugh (Shadow Minister, Health; Southport, Liberal Democrat)
I accept that. I was going to refer to an Adjournment debate in the House, secured by the hon. Member for Wantage (Mr. Vaizey), in which he said that children’s mental health services were being reduced, a major contributory factor being that every PCT had a limited need for them and were therefore simply not providing the cash. National facilities were needed, which no one PCT, or group of PCTs, could adequately afford.
