I thank our guests. This morning has been extremely informative. We have all benefited from the engagement. I was particularly struck by the opening remarks from Deputy Durkan. I agree with many of his comments, especially regarding the lack of 24-7 services. It is shocking that this aspect has not been adequately addressed before now.

Turning to the representatives of Mental Health Reform and its opening statement, I am curious about the €10 million allocated last February but not yet spent. Is there a reason that money has not been spent? Is it due to be spent before the end of quarter 4 of this year?
