I propose to take five minutes, as will Deputy Devlin, with the latter ten minutes towards the end.

I want to come back to the testimony Ms Murphy gave this morning. While she was making her own case, she was speaking on behalf of many nurses about the mental health impact and post-traumatic stress of experiencing exceptional circumstances, which, nonetheless, have left many healthcare workers with a trauma. The experience she outlined seemed to indicate the HSE was relying very heavily on very low levels of intervention, including the use of an app and peer support. Will Dr. Sisson elaborate on the supports available? The HSE seems to indicate there is sufficient support but the INMO clearly stated through personal experiences that there is not.
