Change of Hounslow counselling services must be explained

April 1, 2006 12:00 AM

Andrew Dakers today backed local GPs calls for questions to be answered on changes to counselling services in Hounslow

Andrew Dakers (Lib Dem Parliamentary Spokesperson for Brentford & Isleworth) today backed local GPs calls for questions to be answered on changes to counselling services in Hounslow. In a letter to the Chief Executives of West London Mental Health Trust and Hounslow PCT Andrew asked why GPs were left in the dark and a highly regarded service not given independent support in bidding for a new contract.

Andrew Dakers commented:

"I am very concerned to hear about the changes to counselling service provision here in Hounslow. Given the high regard in which the Brief Intervention and Counselling Service (BICS) was held it seems remarkable that the organisation is now closing down."

"The Chief Executives of Hounslow PCT and West London Mental Health Trust must now explain how this situation came about and answer the substantial questions that local GPs and I have raised about the current situation."
