Quite a number of the questions I wanted to ask have been very comprehensively covered. I thank the CAMHS team for coming in. I thank them for the work they did and for their availability during Covid.

I have a question on treatment versus outcomes. How do CAMHS measure that? In other words, let us say, a child or adolescent comes in for a period and Linn Dara does its work. Is that then it, when it comes to monitoring? If additional assistance is needed, does that child or adolescent go back to the end of a queue? Is there an ongoing facility, structure or protocol in place for them if they remain vulnerable?
