Mr Richard Holden

Conservative — Basildon and Billericay

Speaking in the House of Commons on 23 July 2024

Debate

NHS Mental Health Services

Contribution

I welcome those on the Opposition Front Bench to their roles and those on the Government Front Bench to their new roles. One of the things that we did very well over the past few years on a cross-party basis was tackling the disparity between mental and physical health. Since 2018, £4.7 billion extra has gone into NHS mental health services. Will the Government commit to that going forward and ensure that the proportion of funding towards mental health services will increase in the coming years?
