In fairness to Deputy Verona Murphy, she raised two issues. Regarding the CAMHS teams, we all know there are gaps in the system. I saw the figures recently. I know it is not possible to flick a light switch and fix the problems in this context, but in a few sentences will either Mr. Watt or Mr. Reid outline, for the benefit of the Deputy and the other members of the committee, what is being done on this issue? I ask this to ensure that Deputy Murphy will have some idea in respect of progress being made. Would that be helpful to the Deputy?
