Joint Oireachtas Committee on Education and Skills

Mental Health Supports in Schools and Tertiary Education: Discussion (Resumed)

Ms Suzanne Connolly:

I agree that an online service is inadequate in that context. It is a case of supporting parents and the children and saying that these are realistic worries. I hope that the Government is doing something about the situation. That is one example that I understand. I know there needs to be more money but yes, this is a big issue.
