Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what guidance is issued to NHS mental health providers on assessing terrorist risk when discharging patients convicted of terrorism offences.

Cases involving individuals convicted of terrorism offences are considered on an individual basis. This includes close liaison with Multi-Agency Public Protection Arrangements and other agencies, and consideration of the risks that an individual may pose, or be exposed to, upon discharge.
