Stephen Kinnock

Labour — Aberafan Maesteg

Speaking in the House of Commons on 7 January 2025

Debate

Mental Health Services

Contribution

In addition to the measures that I just set out, in the Budget the Chancellor made funding available to expand talking therapies to 380,000 extra patients. We have a £26 million capital investment scheme for mental health crisis centres and, as always with this Government, investment goes with reform. We are finally reforming the Mental Health Act—that was first talked about when Theresa May was in 10 Downing Street. This Government are rolling up their sleeves and getting on with the job.
