Banner Paul as Health Minister

In May 2010, Paul was appointed Minister of State for Care Services. His areas of responsibility include adult social care, mental health, learning disability, care for the elderly, support for carers and long term care reform.

Paul has a long record of interest in social care and involvement in health and care issues, from being appointed to chair Sutton Council's Disability Forum in 1991, to being Shadow Secretary of State for Health from 2003-2005. He has also been a member of the House of Commons Health Select Committee since July 2005.

Working tirelessly to make a difference to health and social care services and the people that use them, Paul has made many achievements throughout his career so far. In February, Paul and Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg announced the No Health Without Mental Health strategy, backed by £400m to improve access to modern, evidence-based psychological therapies over the next four years.

    If you are a resident of the Sutton and Cheam constituency and are writing to discuss any issue that Parliament or government is responsible for, you must provide your home address as MPs are generally only permitted to act on behalf of constituents.

    If you are not a constituent, you do not need to provide your address, but the matters we can deal with are more limited and you may wish to contact your local MP in the first instance.
