Helen McEntee (Meath East, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

The SPHE programme is being updated so everything will be up to date, and young people are being asked what is important to them and what they should be discussing. Only last week, I launched a new programme in arts, which has been taken up by about a third of schools at the post-primary level. This is an overall health and well-being programme that brings everything into one place. It can be accessed by teachers and students and there is peer-to-peer learning. Most important, parents can also access it. We know the impact mobile phones can have on young people's mental health, particularly where they are accessing the material the Deputy mentioned, such as violent pornography, bullying or other elements on social media. These are all the actions that have been taken, but I absolutely agree that we need to do more. We will all work together on that.
