Seán Kyne: Cuirim fáilte roimh na finnéithe anseo chuig an gcoiste seo: John Howlin, Margaret McCabe agus Ruth Cullen.

Seán Kyne: Is there a driver within the Department of Public Expenditure, National Development Plan Delivery and Reform for this?

Seán Kyne: Tá a fhios agam gur ceann de na róil thábhachtacha é sa Roinn caiteachais phoiblí mar is é sin an ról atá á chur i bhfeidhm ag an Roinn sin ó thaobh earcaíochta de. Ba cheart mar sin go mbeadh ról tábhachtach ag an Roinn agus go mbeadh an Roinn ag cur brú ar chuile phíosa den státseirbhís chun an sprioc seo...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services: Families for Reform of CAMHS (17 Jan 2024)

Seán Kyne: I thank the witnesses for coming before the committee and for their testimony and advocacy. This is the third meeting we have had on these topics in the previous year. This time last year both Ministers came before the committee. We have also had the Mental Health Commission before the committee and now we have the witnesses today. We need to follow up with another meeting with both...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services: Families for Reform of CAMHS (17 Jan 2024)

Seán Kyne: I will read some of what the Minister of State, Deputy Butler said at this time last year. She said: I have visited many CAMHS teams the length and breadth of the country in the past six months and was really struck by a young girl I met in Dundalk who came along with her mother. She had been in the care of CAMHS for four years, was almost 18 and was just exiting. She told me she had 96...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services: Families for Reform of CAMHS (17 Jan 2024)

Seán Kyne: It is often said of the health services that there is the waiting list but once people get in the door the service is good. The witnesses clearly have issues with staff changeover and with certain specialties not being available, so what I have said about the health services is not the case and not the view they have.

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services: Families for Reform of CAMHS (17 Jan 2024)

That funding resources and staffing have not kept pace with demand is clearly an issue from what the witnesses have said. The issue of CAMHS...

Joint Oireachtas Committee on Health: Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services: Families for Reform of CAMHS (17 Jan 2024)

Seán Kyne: Would the witnesses be able to extrapolate and estimate the number of children with autism who are on the waiting list of 4,400? Are they included in it? I presume they cannot be included if CAMHS has no intention of taking them because they have been diagnosed with autism.
