At a local level, ring fencing has been seen to distort spending, and in line with the Health and Social Care Act 2012 this approach has been replaced by clinical commissioning groups (CCGs) having the autonomy to make decisions about the health services that best meet the health needs of their local population.<\/p>

In October 2017, NHS Improvement and the Care Quality Commission (CQC) launched a national mental health patient safety initiative. It will be supported by a national mental health quality improvement programme, led by NHS Improvement and informed by the CQC intelligence as part of a joint strategic objective to ensure a shared view of quality. All mental health providers will be involved in this initiative, which has an emphasis on shared learning and the embedding of sustainable quality improvement approaches as integral to the way mental health services are delivered across the sector.<\/p>

<\/p>

Under the Health and Social Care Act 2008 all providers of regulated activities, including National Health Service and independent mental health providers, have to register with the CQC and follow a set of fundamental standards of safety and quality below which care should never fall. If the CQC is not satisfied with the quality of services provided it can take action against the provider, from issuing warning notices to, ultimately, cancelling a provider\u2019s registration.<\/p>"} , "answeringMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4065", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Dame Jackie Doyle-Price"} } , "answeringMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Thurrock"} , "answeringMemberPrinted" : {"_value" : "Jackie Doyle-Price"} , "dateOfAnswer" : {"_value" : "2017-12-19", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "isMinisterialCorrection" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "questionFirstAnswered" : [{"_value" : "2017-12-19T18:03:41.6Z", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} ]} , "answeringDeptId" : {"_value" : "17"} , "answeringDeptShortName" : {"_value" : "Health"} , "answeringDeptSortName" : {"_value" : "Health"} , "date" : {"_value" : "2017-12-14", "_datatype" : "dateTime"} , "hansardHeading" : {"_value" : "Mental Health Services"} , "houseId" : {"_value" : "1"} , "legislature" : [{"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/terms/25259", "prefLabel" : {"_value" : "House of Commons"} } ], "questionText" : "To ask the Secretary of State for Health, what steps his Department is taking to ensure that current levels of service quality are maintained for patients seeking mental health treatment between 2017 and 2020.", "registeredInterest" : {"_value" : "false", "_datatype" : "boolean"} , "tablingMember" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/members/4036", "label" : {"_value" : "Biography information for Luciana Berger"} } , "tablingMemberConstituency" : {"_value" : "Liverpool, Wavertree"} , "tablingMemberPrinted" : [{"_value" : "Luciana Berger"} ], "uin" : "119764"} , {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/806692", "AnsweringBody" : [{"_value" : "Department of Health"} ], "answer" : {"_about" : "http://data.parliament.uk/resources/806692/answer", "answerText" : {"_value" : "

Children and young people\u2019s mental health is a top priority for this Government which is why we are making an additional £1.4 billion available from 2015/16 to 2019/20 to transform children and young people\u2019s mental health services. This additional money provides funding for clinical commissioning groups and various national programmes, including improving crisis support, expanding the workforce and tackling stigma. The additional money will also be used to improve access to services, with the indicative trajectory for 2018/19 (as set out in NHS England\u2019s implementation plan for their \u201cFive Year Forward View for Mental Health\u201d being for an additional 49,000 additional children to access mental health treatment, rising to 70,000 by 2020/21. Bed numbers in the existing Mother and Baby units will increase so that overall capacity increased by 49% in 2018/19.<\/p>

Our recent joint Department of Health and Department for Education Green Paper, Transforming Children and Young People\u2019s Mental Health Provision, will be supported by over £300 million and aims to improve provision of services in schools, bolster links between schools and the National Health Service, and pilot a four week waiting time.
