Eating Disorders: Mental Health Services
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, how many people are currently being treated in hospital for (a) anorexia and (b) other eating disorders.
Answered by Stephen Kinnock
It is not possible to identify the number of people currently in receipt of hospital treatment for eating disorders such as anorexia, as hospital episode statistics data is collected several weeks in arrears.
