‘Little action on mental proposals’

THE Government has been accused of failing to deliver on mental health commitments by a coalition of campaign groups.

The Mental Health Coalition said last night that “very little” of the recommendations in the “Vision for Change” report had been delivered upon.

The report was produced for the Government in 2006 by an expert group which laid out a comprehensive policy framework for the improvement of mental health services over the next seven to 10 years.
