Mr. Paul Reid:
I will let my colleague comment on Millfield House. Briefly, on all our services, we have a capital plan and there are certain significant challenges in terms of infrastructure and mental health services that we want to invest in. The CHO areas themselves will be bringing back a dedicated capital plan for the CHO area and to address some of the capacity issues.
We have a challenge throughout the country with regard to infrastructure and capital investment, but we have prioritised and put capital funding into mental health. My colleague, Mr. Fitzgerald, will speak about Millfield.
