Part of 2. Questions to the Minister for Health and Social Services – in the Senedd at 2:33 pm on 29 September 2021.
Diolch, Llywydd. Deputy Minister, this is the first opportunity I've had to welcome you to your post and I look forward to working with you over the coming months and years ahead. Minister, we're currently facing a mental health epidemic here in Wales. Referrals are up, section 136 detentions are rising very sharply in young people and more young people are self-harming than ever before. So, what are your Government's priorities, going forward, to tackle this situation, as currently things are getting worse, not better?
