Odd. I provided a direct link to the actual report, yet you seem to be quoting from a BBC news piece here...and after I named how suspicious it was the Zizek did the very same.

The actual report spells out the concerns re: how overwhelmed the service was, how frustrated many young people accessing the service were with this and how certain professionals within the service felt their voices weren't being heard. It's clear that the first of these is the most important in the service not being able to meet demand and expectation.

I'd encourage everyone to read the report for themselves.

If the article is quoting directly from the person who wrote the report or from the report itself I don't see the issue.

Anyway here is a similar quote directly from the report you linked.

Sure, if people believe the BBC is lying they can also do something similar and look up those points from the report itself.

Edit: The interim report clearly mentions failings. Anyone who actually reads it should be in no doubt that Tavistock was shut down partially for it's failings rather than solely because it was oversubscribed.

They should also recognise that it's failings were largely due to it being oversubscribed. No service can work efficiently when overwhelmed.
