answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/02/2023 answer text <p>To understand trends in help seeking and service capacity, the Ministry of Justice receives regular monitoring data from service providers that captures demand, user needs and demographics. This data is collated and analysed to inform policy development and commissioning decisions. In addition, the MoJ regularly engages with the sector to identify good practices and delivery challenges.</p><p>In recognition of rising demand, the Ministry of Justice is more than quadrupling funding for victim and witness support services by 2024/25, up from £41m in 2009/10. The MoJ has committed £154 million per annum on a multi-year basis, for the next three years, allowing victim support services, and those commissioning them, to provide consistency to victims receiving support.</p><p>Funding for sexual abuse support services is largely allocated through local Police and Crime Commissioners (PCC), which for 22/23 included £34 million ringfenced funding for Independent Domestic Violence and Sexual Abuse Advisors, and the national Rape and Sexual Abuse Support Fund (RASASF).</p><p>Last year, MoJ also undertook targeted research with rape victims to better understand their experiences, and what they want from support services. This research, published on 26 January 2023, has directly informed the recommissioning of the RASASF, ensuring our commissioning enables community-based service providers to meet the needs of all victims of rape and sexual abuse in the most effective way. The competition for this funding is currently live.</p> answering member constituency Charnwood answering member printed Edward Argar question first answered 21/02/2023 15:02:48 answering member 4362 label Biography information for Edward Argar

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 21/02/2023 answer text <p>Data is collected by NHS England through the KHO3 Quarterly Bed Availability and Occupancy, submitted as a sector breakdown which includes mental illness. However, this data is not broken down further by specialty such as children and adolescent mental health services (CAMHS) beds. Question 11615 did not request a breakdown of adults’ or children’s beds and the response therefore included the total numbers of consultant-led beds.</p><p>Question 125433 referred specifically to CAMHS beds and, as explained in my response to that question, this information is collected by NHS England but not centrally validated, so bed numbers were not provided.</p> answering member constituency Lewes answering member printed Maria Caulfield question first answered 21/02/2023 09:55:22 answering member 4492 label Biography information for Maria Caulfield
