We have made an additional £1.4 billion available over the course of 2015/16 - 2020/21 to transform services and ensure access to specialist mental health services for an additional 70,000 children and young people a year by 2020/21.<\/p>
<\/p>
We have also introduced two waiting time standards for children and young people. The first is for 95% of children (up to 19 years old) with eating disorders to receive treatment within a week for urgent cases (and four weeks for routine cases). The second is for 50% of patients (of all ages) experiencing a first episode of psychosis to receive treatment within two weeks of referral. We are currently exceeding or on track to meet these waiting time standards.<\/p>
<\/p>
The recent Green Paper, \u2018Transforming Children and Young People\u2019s Mental Health Provision\u2019, published by the Department for Health and Social Care and the Department for Education, announced the creation of new Mental Health Support Teams. These teams will deliver mental health interventions for those with mild to moderate needs in or close to schools and colleges (and refer those with more severe needs on to specialist services). The Green Paper also announced the piloting of a four week waiting time to improve access to National Health Service mental health services, which we will roll out in a number of trailblazer areas alongside the support teams. The Green Paper is supported by an additional £300 million.<\/p>
<\/p>
We will also ensure that at least one teacher in every primary and secondary school will receive mental health awareness training to enable school staff to spot common signs of mental health issues, and to help children and young people receive appropriate support.<\/p>"}

The Department has made no recent assessment of the trends in waiting times for autism spectrum disorder assessments.<\/p>
<\/p>
The National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE) guidelines recommend that the time from a referral to a first appointment is no longer than three months.<\/p>
<\/p>
The latest available data for the country as a whole is available in Public Health England\u2019s report, \u2018Autism Self-Assessment Exercise 2016 Detailed report and thematic analyses\u2019 (published June 2017). The report states that 33 local authorities (22%) reported already meeting the NICE recommended waiting times, 35 (23%) anticipated meeting NICE recommended waiting times by March 2017 and to be able to sustain this thereafter and 66 (43%) did not anticipate being able to reach NICE recommended waiting times sustainably by March 2017. 18 local authorities did not respond to the relevant question.<\/p>
<\/p>
Collection of national waiting times data from referral to a first appointment and on to a diagnosis if one is given, began in April this year. Results will be published in due course.<\/p>"}

The National Suicide Prevention Strategy for England was updated in 2017 to strengthen delivery in a range of key areas for action including targeting high risk groups such as men. The updated strategy is supported by £25 million of investment over the next three years.<\/p>
<\/p>
Every area is implementing a multi-agency suicide prevention plan to ensure that all local services are working together to implement tailored approaches to reducing suicides in their communities. We acknowledge that men may not engage as easily with services and increasingly, evidence indicates that men feel more comfortable accessing support and services in non-clinical settings.<\/p>
<\/p>
This has led to a wide range of innovative responses to provide support to men in community environments they find accessible and relevant including, for example, the Men\u2019s Sheds Movement, Andy\u2019s Man Clubs and State of Mind Sport.<\/p>
<\/p>
We are encouraged that the number of male suicides in England has reduced for the second consecutive year and the overall suicide rate is at its lowest since 2010, but there is much more we must do to ensure that everyone at risk of suicide has the help and support they need.<\/p>"}

Since January 2013, the National Health Service has reported 17 deaths of patients under the care of inpatient children and young people\u2019s mental health services. Following the written statement to Parliament by the then Parliamentary Under-Secretary for Public Health and Innovation (Nicola Blackwood) on 20 January 2017 (HCWS 427), all deaths of patients under the care of inpatient children and young people\u2019s mental health services are reported to Ministers and the National Confidential Inquiry into Suicide and Homicide by People with Mental Illness which will include the figures in its annual reports.<\/p>
<\/p>
Patient safety is a key priority for this Government and we published Learning from Deaths guidance to the NHS in 2017 to improve the way the NHS investigates and learns from deaths to prevent future tragedies. My Rt. hon. Friend the Secretary of State for Health and Social Care also announced a zero suicide ambition for mental health inpatients in January this year, which is supported by £25 million of investment, so that every mental health provider of NHS services has a zero suicide policy in place.<\/p>"}
