No, I am not talking about non-consultants. I am talking about the checks and balances that are currently in the mental health services. If a consultant is appointed, who reviews the work that consultant is doing? In a hospital structure, there are checks and balances because there are a lot of management systems. However, in the context of mental health day services, I am asking what structures are in place? What happened in Kerry has proved that there was not a structure in place.
