Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care, with reference to her Department's press release Earlier mental health support announced for thousands nationwide, published on 25 October 2023, how much of the £2.3 billion of additional funding for mental health services in England will be spent on mental health services for residents of Chipping Barnet constituency.

It is for individual local commissioners to allocate funding to mental health services to meet the needs of their local populations and this information is not collected centrally or at constituency level. Integrated care boards are expected to continue to meet the Mental Health Investment Standard by increasing their investment in mental health services in line with their overall increase in funding for the year.
