Joint Committee On Health
Life Cycle Approach to Mental Health: Discussion
Mr. Se?n Moynihan:
I believe there is. We have learned a lot from the project we have been working on for the past five or six years, and we are trying to engage with the Department of Health, the HSE and the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage to discuss this matter, having regard to a universal design and people having their own front door, staff on site and access to food. On the latter, it is more about people’s choices around food and their autonomy. We have created the model or a demonstrator. There is significant market interest in funding these types of things. Investment funding would not just come from the Government. It is something we can create a breakthrough on.
