Mental Health Bill [HL]Contribution
I will cite two final statistics, which were widely reported last week. The number of young people admitted to general hospital wards in England with a mental health concern is up 65% in the past 10 years. So, we have mental health problems, but people are ending up in general wards, which often simply do not have the services or provision, to meet their needs.
