The purpose of this inspection was to inspect and report on the service received by, and outcomes for, users who are compulsorily detained under the Mental Health Act. It took place at a time when the Mental Health Act was under review, and the Government had published its new strategy for mental health. The strategy was followed by a National Service Framework for Mental Health, which sets standards for all agencies to achieve greater consistency across the country. During the inspection information was gathered from assessments of almost one thousand people under the Mental Health Act. It took place at a time when mental health services were being re-assessed in the light of the new national standards for mental health and this report is timely in helping local councils to evaluate services.
