Mary Butler (FF), Waterford

I have just come from a meeting with a group called the Child and Adolescent Regional Eating Disorder Service, which was meant to be in the audiovisual room this afternoon. Due to the fact that another organisation which promotes supports for people with eating disorders was already presenting, however, the group whose representatives I just met pulled its presentation.
It is important to note that 90% of people with eating disorders do get care in the community. The Deputy cannot avoid that fact. When I came into this post in 2020, there was one eating disorder team in place and two other teams were funded.
