The expert group on mental health policy is currently preparing a national policy framework for the further modernisation of the mental health services, updating the 1984 policy document, Planning for the Future. The expert group, which is currently examining the future direction and delivery of all aspects of our mental health services, has a number of sub-groups looking at specialist issues in mental health services, including eating disorders. The group is expected to complete its work and publish its report later this year.
