In 2011 the Government published No health, without mental health, a cross Government mental health outcomes strategy for people of all ages which remains the Government's vision for improving services for people with mental health problems; this specifically includes people with personality disorders. The Mandate to NHS England makes clear that by March 2015, we expect NHS England to make measurable progress towards achieving true parity of esteem between mental and physical health and that everyone who needs it should have timely access to evidence-based services. answering member printed Earl Howe question first answered 19/06/2014 11:56:04 answering member 2000 label Biography information for Earl Howe
