Ms Yvonne O'Neill:

No. We never had a clinical lead specific to youth mental health. However, at regional level we have clinicians who are clinical directors in CAMHS services so we have that specialism. Apropos of the point around the review, clinical review is a routine part of how teams work. It is not that we need a national call for a review to assure. In clinical practice, and my colleague, Dr. Henry, might want to speak to this, it is a routine part of how the teams function.
