My Department is represented on the task force chaired by the Minister of State, Deputy McEntee, which specifically targets youth mental health. We are very keen that we come forward with initiatives through the education system that can support what is a very serious challenge for us. I look forward to developing the issue. I have undertaken an audit of our activity in this area with a view to sharpening the impact of what we do.
