Speaking in the House of Lords on 14 January 2025

Debate

Mental Health Bill [HL]

Contribution

In the meantime, until then, one small step would be to include housing in the Bill and thereby put a joint responsibility on providers of health services to take into consideration people’s housing needs. By that, I do not mean lumping the responsibility on to local authorities while the resources stay in the health service, because that is the usual pattern of how we do things around here and it does not work.
