To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how much NHS England has spent on inpatient care for people with (a) learning disabilities and (b) autism (i) in total, (ii) by direct commissioning and (iii) by Integrated Care Boards in the last 12 months.

This information is not held in the format requested. However, NHS England does hold the following information regarding spending on inpatient care for people with a learning disability and autistic people. On mental health inpatient care in 2021/22, specialised commissioning spent £125 million for people with a learning disability, and £22 million for autistic people.

NHS England did not collect what Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs), the predecessor organisations to integrated care boards (ICBs), spent specifically on inpatient care for people with a learning disability and autistic people for 2021/22. It was the responsibility of CCGs to commission appropriate services for their population and to make their own decisions about spend on inpatient and community care, with the responsibly being with ICBs following their formation on 1 July 2022. However, in total, in 2021/22 CCGs spent £2.1 billion on care for people with a learning disability and autistic people.
