Public Audit Committee

Section 23 Report: “Adult mental health”

Meeting date: 16 November 2023

Richard Leonard

Yes, I do. If anyone has any views about that model, which is highlighted in the report from the Auditor General and the Accounts Commission, we would be interested to get their views. It involves a more community-based organisation, and it is a walk-in service. Perhaps Anne Rowan would have a perspective on that. Anyway, I will bring in Graham.

Both Anne Rowan and Mike Burns have indicated that they want to come in, and I think that Christiana Melam wanted to come in on a previous point. Anne and Mike might be the ideal candidates to tell us about their insights into that approach. We will begin with Anne.

Thanks. That is a really helpful perspective to bring in.

I turn to Anne Rowan for her view on whether the answer is the link workers and what happens to people who fall through the cracks.

We are really up against the clock, so I apologise to a couple of people who wanted to come in on that point, but I need to move things on. We have to cover some important areas, and I invite Willie Coffey to lead us off on the next section.

Thanks, Mike—that is really well put. I go to Christiana Melam, before I bring in Stephen Low.

Sorry to interrupt. It is just to alert you to the fact that Mike Burns, Pavan Srireddy and Chris Williams also want to come in on the question.
