answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 14/12/2015 answer text <br /><p>The Ministry of Defence is absolutely committed to looking after the mental health of our Armed Forces personnel, and through the Defence budget we fund a range of military medical staff and facilities to provide community-based healthcare in line with national best practice. This includes the ability to deploy medical staff on major operations such as those in Iraq and Afghanistan. In the UK, we have 16 permanent military Departments of Community Mental Health, which are located to be convenient for major centres of military population, and which support the provision of healthcare that is available through GPs in Service primary care facilities. In-patient care, when necessary, is provided in dedicated psychiatric units through a central contract with an external provider.</p><br /> answering member constituency Milton Keynes North answering member printed Mark Lancaster question first answered 14/12/2015 16:39:47 answering member 1544 label Biography information for Lord Lancaster of Kimbolton
