547. To ask the Minister for Health if his attention has been drawn to the fact that when persons attend emergency departments with mental health problems, including suicide ideation, there is no help available for them, they are simply sent back out into the streets; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

As this is a service matter I have asked the Health Service Executive to respond directly to the Minister as soon as possible.
