Stephen Kinnock

Labour — Aberafan Maesteg

Speaking in the House of Commons on 11 February 2025

Debate

Mental Health Services

Contribution

We in this Chamber should, whenever possible, pay tribute to the people providing those frontline services, who every day work heroically in very difficult circumstances. My hon. Friend is absolutely right about the pressures on the workforce—we are very conscious of that. We will bring forward a workforce plan in the summer, and we are working at pace to recruit the 8,500 mental health workers.
