Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

First of all, I thank the Deputy for raising this issue. I convey our sympathies to Anthony Hennessy's family on his sad passing. I will ask the Minister of State for mental health to engage with the Deputy on progressing the issue. It certainly is something we would give consideration to in respect of ensuring there is access to, and availability and provision of, accredited suicide prevention training for all staff in key positions. Some staff perhaps have training but not all of them do.
