381. To ask the Minister for Health his views on whether CAMHS psychiatrists that triage a referred patient to be seen by primary care in the first instance would be correct to reject the referral in view of the recent resignation of three CAMHS consultants and comments by the Minister for Education and Skills in Dáil Éireann on 14 June 2018 with regard to the referral pathway to CAMHS and primary care; if there are agreed guidelines for consultant child psychiatrists on triaging patients between primary and secondary care; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
