The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, if he will place more mental health services in primary care.

Answered by Stephen Kinnock

As part of our mission to build a National Health Service fit for the future, we will make sure mental health care is delivered in the community wherever possible, so that more people are prevented from needing to go into hospital, through new models of care and support available for those who are struggling.
