Thank you for that response. It is true to say that there is concern that there is a lack of support and provision available through the medium of Welsh in dealing with mental health issues at a national level here in Wales. It's extremely important, of course, that individuals with mental health problems have the assistance in the language they are most comfortable using—you come to a diagnosis more quickly and improve the quality of care in general terms. So, would you agree to look at what is currently available—including software and electronic packages available—in order to support people effectively, and how things can improve for the future?
