answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/11/2014 answer text <p>We do not have systematic evidence of increasing waiting times across the different ‘tiers’ of child and adolescent mental health services (CAMHS). Anecdotal evidence for increasing waiting times we are aware of does not link to specific geographical areas or providers.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>The Charity YoungMinds and the <em>CAMHS Benchmarking Report</em> by the NHS Benchmarking Network have both reported increased waiting times for services.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>YoungMinds state that lack of access to services and long waiting lists are common issues raised through the YoungMinds Parent’s helpline.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>The <em>Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) Tier 4 </em>Report identifies a long waiting time for beds in some areas, and as a result NHS England is investing £7 million this financial year to provide up to 50 additional beds in the areas with greatest need.</p><p> </p><p><strong> </strong></p><p> </p><p>We are keen to ensure that children and young people are able to access mental health services as and when they need them. The Children and Adolescent Mental Health Wellbeing Taskforce is focusing on a number of issues which need to be addressed in child and adolescent mental health, including the current complexity faced by children and young people and their parents and carers in understanding and accessing child and adolescent mental health services.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>In October we published a 5 Year Plan <em>Achieving Better Access to Mental Health Services by 2020</em> which sets out the case for comprehensive access and waiting time standards in mental health for people of all ages. It announces the introduction of standard waiting times for Early Intervention in Psychosis services which will be of benefit to young people, and for the adult Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT) programme. Where adult IAPT services are commissioned to provide a service to 16 and 17 year olds, the waiting time standards will apply to all those attending the service, regardless of their age.</p><p> </p> answering member constituency North Norfolk answering member printed Norman Lamb question first answered 05/11/2014 15:48:10 answering member 1439 label Biography information for Norman Lamb

question text	To ask Her Majesty’s Government whether they intend to propose to Parliament that the United Kingdom join the United States in air attacks on the Daesh besiegers of Kobani.

uin	HL2294
answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 05/11/2014 answer text <p>Reports from Kobane continue to be deeply concerning and we are monitoring the situation closely. We strongly support the coalition airstrikes against the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) and al-Qaeda affiliates in Syria by the US, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, and Jordan. As the Prime Minister, my right hon. Friend the Member for Witney (Mr Cameron), has said, the Government will return to Parliament for a separate decision if we propose to take military action against ISIL in Syria. As the Prime Minister has made clear, if there were a critical British national interest at stake or there were the need to act to prevent a humanitarian catastrophe, we would act immediately and explain to Parliament afterwards.</p> answering member printed Baroness Anelay of St Johns question first answered 05/11/2014 15:45:27 answering member 3474 label Biography information for Baroness Anelay of St Johns
