Mr. Michael Fitzgerald:

In general, if the child was under the care of CAMHS or any of its services, that child would continue to be under the care of the consultant in CAMHS, along with the multidisciplinary team's input. I am not sure what "signed off" means. I presume it meant the child was discharged, although it may not mean that. If a child was discharged he or she would not be with CAMHS. I can follow it up for the Deputy. That is my understanding of what would be meant.
