Mr. Michael Ryan:

Just to reiterate what Ms Coyle said, we need to ensure our young people are treated in the most appropriate and best settings. Not to contradict it, but one interesting piece of feedback we received was that on some occasions young people might request that they are treated nearer to their homes and the only option might be an adult unit. We just have to try to bear that in mind as well. Is there a benefit in having the person close to their natural supports that might not be available if they were in a different part of the country? The question is about ensuring our young people get the appropriate supports and treatment in the appropriate environment.
