I certainly understand the passion of Deputy D'Arcy in respect of this topic and the importance of mental health provision in County Wexford. Certainly, I will undertake to go back to the Minister of State, Deputy McEntee, with the concerns raised by Deputy D'Arcy. I imagine she would be happy to sit down with him and whatever advocacy group that accompanies him to discuss the matter. I will do that. A six-bed acute admission facility is the request from Deputy D'Arcy. While there have been substantial increases in the budget, perhaps they have not been reflected in the additional resources requires in the case of Wexford, notwithstanding the extra provision which I have set out in the response from the Minister of State, Deputy McEntee. Certainly, I will go back to her with the concerns raised by Deputy D'Arcy. I imagine she will be happy to sit down with him to further tease out the issues to which he refers. Perhaps she will bring the relevant HSE officials to that meeting as well.
