The Deputy makes a fair, valid and what appears to be a reasonable point. He articulates it very well. I will look at the details of the case and I will ask for a report from the HSE on it. I will ensure that the Department oversees this process in order to ensure that we get to the bottom of the matter. The Deputy's concerns are valid and are very relevant to the work that is ongoing. We are trying to develop the Decision Support Service. It is a huge body of work to establish that in order that we might implement Assisted Decision-Making Capacity Act in full. I welcome the Deputy's input and his contribution today. I commit to undertaking the follow-up requested.
