I thank the witnesses for their presentations. In particular, I thank the Garda for the work it is doing in Limerick. It is about everyone working together in a lot of cases where it is quite complex and difficult to manage.

The Irish Medical Organisation has expressed concern about involuntary admissions. I presume there has been engagement with the Department on this issue. It sounds quite difficult if people are admitted and medical practitioners are restricted from proceeding with treatment. Where is this coming from, particularly if the people working at the coalface are not in agreement with it?
