I thank the Minister of State for coming into the House and making such an eloquent contribution. I wish him well in the future.

I welcome Dr. Walsh's report. It is unusual that mental health is the only area of the sprawling health service on which such an audit is done in this way. I am also aware that it is regarded positively by many of the professionals working in the area of mental health and used by them to try to promote improvement in this important area.
