Report of the Inspector of Mental Hospitals, 2001: Statements.
It is very good that numbers are reducing and that we have very good community facilities in the regions. There can be objections to some of the community houses that are put in place. In the past people have objected to the use of two or three houses in an estate. The same objections arise when trying to deal with centres for the homeless or lone parents. There is a consultation and education process which Departments and health boards must go through to get suitable places in the community.
