Question to the Department of Health and Social Care:

To ask the Secretary of State for Health, when he plans to publish the Government's response to the consultation, No voice heard, no right ignored, a consultation for people with learning disabilities, autism and mental health conditions, which closed on 29 May 2015.

Cabinet Office guidance recommends that government departments publish consultation responses within 12 weeks of the consultation closing. To allow the Government to fully consider the broad range of the consultation responses received, the Department intends to respond in the autumn whilst Parliament is sitting, rather than during the recess period.
