Luciana Berger – 2016 Parliamentary Question to the Department of Health

The below Parliamentary question was asked by Luciana Berger on 2016-02-10.

To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what his assessment is of the availability and adequacy of mental health services available to children in England with OCD.

Alistair Burt

The Government has made no such assessment. It is for local areas to consider and commission services based on the needs of their local population. Local transformation plans produced in each area of the country set out how they plan to meet the full spectrum of needs of children and young people with mental health problems including those with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.
