To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, what recent estimate he has made of the number of children with mental health conditions on the waiting list for hospital admission.

No such estimate has been made. The Mental Health Services Data Set includes data on people who have been referred for mental health services, but it does not specify whether the admission to services is as an inpatient or an outpatient.
