Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health
Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services: Families for Reform of CAMHS
Ms Hannah N? Ghiolla Mhairt?n:
Members of our group are taking their own court cases. Our group has a committee that has discussed what path we want to take.
At the moment we are keen to look for the prospective route to see if we can bring in reform, rather than looking back retrospectively at what some of our children may have gone through. We want the reform to come about for children coming into the service so children do not have a repeat of what we have gone through. A lot of us have young children. They are going to be in the service for another eight years or whatever. We want the reforms to come about. At the moment we are very much taking an advocacy route. We have not ruled out other possible routes but we are going to see how far we can go with this route.
