NHS set for ethnic survey

Ministers are to order the NHS to introduce comprehensive ethnic monitoring of all mental health patients in England.

Rosie Winterton, the health minister, will publish a response to an official inquiry into the death of David "Rocky" Bennett, a 38-year-old Rastafarian who died in a psychiatric ward in Norwich in 1998.

The response - originally promised for last May - will be given tomorrow.
