810. Deputy Michael Lowry asked the Minister for Health the actions being taken to ensure that mental health services in north Tipperary are adequately resourced, in light of current deficits in psychiatry, occupational therapy and social work positions; the measures in place to recruit and retain staff across these disciplines; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [16364/26]

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