Question:
To ask the Minister of Health to detail the number of private diagnoses for adult ADHD (i) approved by a Health and Social Care Trust prescribing clinician for medication; and (ii) rejected by a Health and Social Care Trust prescribing clinician for medication, in the last 5 years, broken down by Health and Social Care Trust.

Answer:

There are currently no regionally commissioned services for the assessment and treatment of adult ADHD and no requirement for Health and Social Care Trusts to record if a person has ADHD. The information is therefore not available.
