The HSE Service Plan 2016 prioritises the development of a range of Early Intervention and prevention mental health initiatives for young people. This includes the consolidation of the ten existing Jigsaw services nationally,and the provision of new services at Dublin, Cork and Limerick. As the details raised by the Deputy on a further roll-out is a service issue, this question has been referred to the HSE for direct reply.
