Freedom of information figures that were obtained by Mind from Southern Health NHS Foundation Trust reveal that in my constituency, the number of people with mental issues who are admitted to hospital, rather than treated by Specialist Crisis resolution and home treatment services, is higher than average.

These are not the skills that we provide our police officers with; this is the skills base that we provide our mental health nursing professionals with, which is why Specialist Crisis teams in mental health services must be expanded and made generally available.
