The CCG will make available some background information relating to the tenders sought and awarded on request; items not included will be those where issues of commercially or confidentiality are involved.
Mental Health Investment Standard
As a CCG we must meet the Mental Health Investment Standard, by which our investment in mental health rises at a faster rate than our overall published programme funding.
