I will briefly outline the process. Several members will have seven minutes to ask questions and receive the answers, if that is possible. Before the witnesses arrived I informed members of the very serious nature of the resignations of several psychiatrists in the south east, meaning that from mid-July onwards, unless they are replaced there will be no services for children in the south east. That includes north Wexford, south Wexford and Waterford. Personally, I find that extremely disturbing. I do not know if Deputy Browne was aware of that.
