Petition A new ONS prevalence survey into Children's and Young People's Mental Health.

Office of National Statistics prevalence surveys were carried out into Children and Young People's Mental Health in 1999 & 2004. We have no equivalent up to date information. There are indicators of a growing problem in the UK in this area. A new survey would highlight the need for action.
