For too many families, the wait to access CAHMS mental health services for their children is far too long. A new funding settlement from the Berkshire West Commissioning Group is welcome, but I was disappointed to learn that this does not entail much more than a general ambition to reduce waiting times.
I am determined that we get waiting times down, and that we achieve this over a reasonable timeframe. I will be working with the Minister Gillian Keegan to ensure that we improve this vital service in West Berkshire.
