In some such cases, including for example those involving criminality or public safety, police involvement may well be necessary.</p><p>However, the Government has been clear that the police should not be expected to care on an ongoing basis for those who have committed no offence but who require professional healthcare. The Government is working closely with the police and health services to better understand the precise scale and nature of mental health demands, and how these may best be addressed.</p> answering member constituency Ruislip, Northwood and Pinner answering member printed Mr Nick Hurd question first answered 05/12/2018 16:42:11 answering member 1561 label Biography information for Mr Nick Hurd
