Specifically on the recommendations by the Oireachtas Joint Committee on the Future of Mental Health Care and refreshing A Vision for Change, which is the overarching policy that drives the Government's mental health policy, as the Senator will be aware we have been refreshing the policy document for some time. I hope to bring the final version to Government in the next two or three weeks. During the process the recommendations were taken into account. In particular, the issues surrounding Traveller mental health are referred to in the refreshed A Vision for Change, which will be published in the coming weeks.
