answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 30/10/2018 answer text <p>To track progress with implementation of the workforce plan, the Department has asked Health Education England (HEE) to develop a Mental Health Workforce Dashboard to monitor plans for the delivery of the workforce targets. This uses:</p><p>- Data from Strategic Transformation Partnership regional plans (to monitor staff expansion plans);</p><p>- NHS Digital data to track the size of the whole mental health workforce;</p><p>- Data from NHS Improvement on staff retention rates; and</p><p>- Data from HEE on the numbers of trainee staff currently studying and those undertaking specific courses for upskilling themselves to work in mental health.</p><p>For the longer term a project is underway, led by the Department, to improve the way in which NHS Digital data captures changes in workforce numbers. We are hoping that this will enable more accurate reporting of actual staff changes from early next financial year.</p> answering member constituency West Suffolk answering member printed Matt Hancock question first answered 30/10/2018 17:00:10 answering member 4070 label Biography information for Matt Hancock

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 30/10/2018 answer text <p>The Prime Minister announced a Suicide Prevention Minister on 10 October who will work across national and local government to reduce suicides and drive implementation of the Cross-Government National Suicide Prevention Strategy. The National Strategy highlights men, and especially middle-aged and young men, as a group at high risk of suicide. We have set out in suicide prevention planning guidance to local authorities that their suicide prevention plans should prioritise suicide reduction in men. Every local authority has a suicide prevention plan in place or in development.</p><p> </p><p>We are also investing £25 million in suicide prevention over the next three years, and in May we announced the first local sustainability and transformation partnership (STP) areas that are receiving some of this funding. The Department has worked with NHS England and Public Health England to ensure that STP areas prioritise approaches to reaching men in local communities to support the implementation of local suicide prevention plans.</p><p> </p><p>The Department engages with a wide range of organisations and stakeholders that focus on good mental health and wellbeing and suicide risk in men to support and promote their activities. These include projects such as Mens’ Sheds, State of Mind Sport, CALM (Campaign Against Living Miserably) and the Sport and Recreation Alliance Mental Health Charter.</p><p> </p><p>The suicide rate in England has reduced for the third consecutive year, and in men for the fourth consecutive year, and is now at its second lowest recorded level.</p> answering member constituency West Suffolk answering member printed Matt Hancock question first answered 30/10/2018 15:58:31 answering member 4070 label Biography information for Matt Hancock
