Recommendations in the White Paper Working for Patients will have a major influence in the field of child health. District consultants have been asked by colleagues and managers to explain and account for current practice in child and adolescent psychiatry, and to plan for the future against a background of serious financial constraint. Similarly, child and adolescent psychiatrists will need to evaluate current levels of use of regional services and consider a relationship where these services may have to be bought from a limited child and adolescent psychiatry budget.
