There have been many reports expressing concerns about the level of services. I am not going to run through a long list of them, but I am sure noble Lords in this Committee are well aware of those issues. There is also the issue that many patients are being placed into out-of-area placements. Facilities are being set up in places that are cheap to run but are not necessarily in the vicinity of patients’ homes and families and the kind of social set-up that might support them.
