906. To ask the Minister for Health the additional funding that has been allocated for CAMHS since the onset of the pandemic; the overall funding provided to the service for that period of time; if he has concerns that the service may not have the capacity to deal with the demands being placed upon it; and if he will make a statement on the matter.
