question text	To ask the Secretary of State for Health, pursuant to the Answer of 16 July to Question 6166, whether all Clinical Commissioning Groups (CCGs) are to receive a funding increase in the next financial year; and whether the expectation in the National Health Service England planning document for 2015-16 that mental health spending will grow in real terms at least as fast as each CCG's overall allocation will be enforceable or a guideline.

CCGs were required to ensure that mental health spend will rise in real terms and grow at least in line with each CCG’s overall allocation growth. Planned expenditure on mental health for each CCG was collected as part of the planning process and checked to see whether the planning requirement had been met. Approximately 90% of CCGs either met or exceeded the planning requirement. Any CCG that did not meet the planning requirement was subject to further assurance through the planning process to ensure that there was a clear rationale for the planned level of investment.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p> answering member constituency North East Bedfordshire answering member printed Alistair Burt question first answered 14/09/2015 14:41:09 answering member 1201 label Biography information for Alistair Burt
