I replied already. The HSE's child and adolescent mental health services, CAMHS, will be responsible for the provision of mental health services. While the new children’s hospital will include a 20-bed acute CAMHS inpatient unit, the provider of the service will be the CAMHS service of the HSE, rather than the new body. It is for this reason that the term "mental health" is not included.
