Mental Health Bulletin, 2023-24 Annual report

As part of ongoing work to review current reporting via the Mental Health Services Monthly Statistics and the annual Mental Health Bulletin publication series, a number of potential changes have been identified.  The overarching objective of this review is to streamline and consolidate MHSDS metrics, publications and dashboards.  In doing so, we are aiming to strike the right balance between the views and needs of users of the data and the business requirement to move to a more sustainable publication schedule that matches our analytical capacity, while providing key information covered by the Bulletin, such as equality, in a form and frequency that better meets the needs of the system.

These consultations close at 23:59 on Sunday 12th October 2025.
