A mental health trust has become the first in England to be put in special measures.
NHS regulator Monitor will send a team to take over the management of Norfolk and Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust.
The decision comes after the Care Quality Commission (CQC) reported the trust was "not a safe, effective or responsive service".
Special measures means a director will be attached to the trust to ensure the improvement plan is carried out.
External experts will work with the existing senior management team at the trust to resolve its problems.
