It came at a time we had particularly bad issues with mental health in our county. It was disturbing. I am here to contribute in a positive way and I acknowledge that everybody is trying to improve things. It is such a critical area. We need to move as quickly as possible. A sum of €25 million might not now be expended on mental health. This should not be happening when we have such a crisis.
