Recommendation 13
13
Set clear deadline for publishing the Modern Service Framework for mental health in 2026.
Recommendation
We welcome the commitment in the 10 Year Health Plan to develop a Modern Service Framework (MSF) for mental health, with a focus on the needs of people with severe and enduring mental illness in particular. However, without a clear timeline for publication, this work risks slipping down the political agenda. To ensure progress and accountability, the Government should set a deadline, in its response to this report, for when in 2026 the MSF for mental health will be published. (Recommendation, Paragraph 98)
