Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Mental Health Services: Discussion
Ms Fiona Coyle:
Yes. This is an area that can be strengthened. There is minimum engagement currently but, again, the HSE is best-placed to give concrete answers. The committee can encourage that discussion. Resourcing for courses should not be coming from the HSE budget; it should be coming from the higher education budget. There have been incidences where that has not happened and there is a role for this committee in that.
