Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what discussions is she having with [a] ICBs and [b] NHS Trusts on the trends and levels in usage of gambling support services.

NHS England will be developing a national commissioning specification to ensure consistent, high-quality care across all gambling treatment and support services nationwide. Given the evolving evidence landscape and NHS England’s plans to allocate funding to innovation and evaluation over the coming years, this document will be updated as required to reflect new findings, including trends and levels of usage of support services.
