I thank Dr. Muldoon for his opening statement. The report is excellent. Before I invite Ms Brennan to make her opening statement, I advise her that the statement from her children will be included not only in our report but may also be included in the official transcript of the meeting. I ask that she provide it for the clerk after the meeting has concluded.

She has used the services for her children in the south east. In the light of what happened last week, with three psychiatrists resigning in the south east, it is important that members hear about the impact it is having on her and all other families in the area.
