I thank all the witnesses for appearing before the committee. Ms Róisín Webb talked about the care for the children, and I admire the work going on in Jigsaw, in Meath, but it goes back to Deputy Butler's point. In terms of mental health, if the teacher is involved in a dreadful situation that arises, there are no supports. As mentioned, sometimes they do not have the money to pay €100 for a psychologist and they may feel that the child is being looked after, the school has its policy, but what supports are in place for the teacher?
