Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:
To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what assessment he has made of the implications for his policies of trends in the average waiting time for mental health services in (a) Enfield North constituency, (b) the London Borough of Enfield and (c) London.
The Department has made no such assessment. NHS England is working to model the implications of introducing new access and waiting time standards, including understanding data reporting and workforce requirements, to improve waiting times at both local and national level.
