On 27 November, Deputy Pearse Doherty raised the fact that half the positions in child and adolescent mental health service, CAMHS, teams throughout the State are vacant and have been for some time. The Taoiseach accepted that CAMHS was not up to scratch in many areas and said he would look for a report on a comparison of its resources, staffing and outcomes.
