Progressing the Delivery of Disability Policy and Services: Discussion (Resumed)

Go raibh maith agat. We have all been talking for a long time about ensuring there is no wrong door and a single point of access, so the sooner we get it, the better. We have also always been talking about CAMHS in Scotland and that sort of idea. It is a bit frightening when someone said we still need an electronic referral system. I understand that IT systems in the State set-up have not had a great history in the last while, but this should be able to be bought off the shelf.
Whatever alterations are needed, such a system should be relatively easy to put into operation. What is the timeline to have it in place?
