Baroness Sherlock (Lab)

Speaking in the House of Lords on 5 November 2024

Debate

Health-related Benefit Claims

Contribution

My Lords, there is no doubt whatever that there are real problems with child and adolescent mental health services, but we will address them. In the meantime, we have plans in place to recruit another 8,500 mental health professionals to support both children and adults, and we will look carefully at that. We are very conscious that there is no point in identifying mental health problems if there is nowhere to refer young people when they need help.
