Question to the Department for Work and Pensions:
To ask the Secretary of State for Work and Pensions, what steps his Department is taking with the Department for Health and Social Care to develop the new National Suicide Prevention Strategy.
This question was answered on 8th June 2023
The DWP is working closely with the DHSC on the development of the national suicide prevention strategy. This is through our membership of the National Suicide Prevention Advisory Group.
To support the DHSC’s development of the strategy, we have shared the DWP’s response to instances where our customers indicate either suicide or serious self-harm in the form of our ‘6 Point Plan’.
