I thank the witnesses for their presentations, which will be useful in our work.
It seems like everything is pointing in the one direction in terms of the independent therapeutic services that are needed within schools. Will Dr. Muldoon elaborate on how those will work? If we know what needs to be done, why are we not doing it? Why are we not following the Dorset model when we know that there was a reduction of 1,000 children in CAMHS? It makes sense, so what is stopping it from being implemented?
