Barbara Keeley MP, Labour’s Shadow
Minister for Mental Health,
commenting on the findings of the CQC’s State of Care Report 2017, said:
“It is unacceptable that over a
third of NHS core mental health services require improvement on safety.
“Tory cuts have led directly to
the problems mental health services are experiencing, including falls in nurse
numbers, poor physical environments and long waiting times for child and
adolescent mental health services.
“Labour will invest in mental
health services and ring-fence budgets so that funding reaches the front line.
