Joint Committee On Health

General Scheme of the Mental Health (Amendment) Bill 2021: Mental Health Commission

Mr. John Farrelly:

I can speak to that as the accountable officer. The Department and the Minister, since I joined the commission, have been absolutely supportive in giving us funding. As I said, we will have the evidence to ensure that there is a value-for-money basis for that. I believe we will receive the funding. I do not think there will be an issue there. There is always a fight for €500,000 or €1 million here or there, and you have to cut your cloth in the current climate, but that is always how it will be.
