Ms Áine Lawlor:

I previously submitted a piece back in 2023 to the committee. We can submit it again. It looked at what was available across the professional bodies internationally from an evidence-based point of view. There is anecdotal evidence. It is important to think about what ingredients of therapy are working for the child. Is the specific approach that is RPM working, or are other pieces of intervention working? The evidence base has not necessarily shown this yet. That does not mean it is the end of the conversation. This needs to be continued to be worked on. However, internationally, at this point, that is where things stand on a full basis. There are pieces that are working for individuals and that is definitely what we are seeing and hearing. It is important we take that forward into the narrative for how we develop therapies.
