Question
To ask the Scottish Government what the total spend has been on (a) adult psychological therapies' services and (b) CAMHS in each of the last five financial years, also broken down by NHS board.
Answer
Public Health Scotland do not hold psychological therapies spend. The CAMHS spend is provided in the following table. The figures shown cover expenditure that Boards have identified as relating to Mental Health services delivered in hospitals or in the community, and that are aimed specifically at children and adolescents. Note that, within the Cost Book, some Boards may not distinguish all expenditure relating specifically to this age group meaning some elements of expenditure are likely to omitted. Therefore, year on year trends should be regarded with caution.
