performance data for the NHS's Increased Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT) programme.

Step 1 only
Step 1 & 2
Step 1, 2 & 3

2. Does IAPT measure the number of people who have received IAPT services who re-enter IAPT services at a later date? if so, what is the data for the number of people who re-enter IAPT services each year for 2008-2015?

3. Does IAPT record the number of clients who are also ESA or disability benefit claimants? If so what are the total number of IAPT clients who receive benefits for each year 2008-2015

4. Does IAPT carry out a follow up evaluation after treatment has ended? If so what is the evaluation data for each year 2008-2015?

5. Does IAPT record whether clients receive medication for mental health problems? If so, what percentage of IAPT clients take medication for mental health problems for each year 2008-2015?

Dear Elizabeth Cotton,

I am writing to acknowledge that your request for information was received

you to clarify your request. If this is required we aim to do this
promptly but no later than 7 days after receiving your initial request for
information.

May I take this opportunity to explain the FOI Act in more detail? The Act
provides a 'General right of access to information held by public
authorities'. However, it also defines a number of exemptions which may
prevent the release of some or all of the information you have requested.
Therefore, NHS Digital will assess your information request in light of
any relevant exemptions.

If exemptions do apply, then NHS Digital may decide not to release all, or
part, of the information you have requested. I shall inform you if this is
