Joint Oireachtas Committee on Future of Mental Health Care

Mental Health Services: Discussion (Resumed)

1:30 pm

Dr. Kieran Moore:

I thank the Chairman for giving me the opportunity to respond. It has been said there is a lot of positive stuff ongoing. I absolutely agree. In the context of the budget figure of 6.6%, the point we really want to get across is that there is a difference between mental illness and mental health. The patients we see are really suffering and unwell, as members of the committee well know.
