Abstract
The dual diagnosis of learning disability and mental illness represents a significant challenge to health and social care practitioners and their existing practices. Currently this group has its service delivery undermined by inter-agency wrangling over responsibility for management and resource allocation. The key to resolving these problems lies in effective multi-agency collaboration. This paper examines the taxing problems of assessment, planning and intervention in this arena. It will offer examples of good practice from the Area Child Protection Committee model.
