Lord Boateng – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Department of Health

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Lord Boateng on 2016-04-28.

To ask Her Majesty’s Government what assessment they have made of the level of investment in public mental health intervention in each of the last three years.

Lord Prior of Brampton

Previously, spend on public mental health has been a sub-category of the miscellaneous reporting category and most councils would have captured this spend locally. From 2016-17, mental health spend from the public health grant has its own dedicated reporting category and the information will be available nationally.
