As this is a service matter, I have asked Health Service Executive to respond directly to the Deputy as a matter of urgency.

The Deputy may be aware that the HSE provides advice on their website: for people who may have concerns regarding persons with suicidal tendencies. The HSE advises that where someone has such concerns, they should contact as quickly as they can their G.P., their local Emergency Department, HSE Mental Health Services or the Samaritans. The Samaritans 24 hour helpine number is 116 123 and further information regarding support services can be found at the following weblink .
