National suicide prevention director

Summary

Sandra McLellan asks whether the long-vacant National Office for Suicide Prevention director’s post has been filled; the Taoiseach undertakes to have the Minister of State reply directly.

While Members already have discussed the matter of death by suicide, can the Taoiseach confirm whether the new director for the National Office for Suicide Prevention has taken up his position yet? The post was vacant from September 2011 to November 2012.
