Health, Social Care and Sport Committee (Virtual)

Health and Wellbeing of Children and Young People

Meeting date: 18 January 2022

Gillian Mackay

In its submission, the Royal College of Psychiatrists said that there is

“a wide variation by health board in how even CAMHS set its expectation for who would likely need care in its services”

and that that is dependent on particular geographies and availability of resource. To what extent does regional variation impact rejected referrals? That question is for Joanne Smith.

Health and Wellbeing of Children and Young People

Meeting date: 18 January 2022

Gillian Mackay

I have heard from the social care sector that increasing workloads and reduced—[Inaudible.]—have undermined its ability to build relationships with the young people, families and carers who it works with and to make early interventions. How has that affected the wellbeing of care-experienced young people? I put that to Lucy Hughes.

Health and Wellbeing of Children and Young People

Meeting date: 18 January 2022

Gillian Mackay

The other issue that I want to touch on is data. The lack of data on rejected referrals has been highlighted to the committee. Do we have a sense of whether children and young people from certain backgrounds with certain conditions, or from marginalised groups, are more likely to be rejected for support? I will go to Dr Stark on that.

Transvaginal Mesh Removal Reimbursement Scheme

Meeting date: 11 January 2022

Gillian Mackay

Given that many of the women who travelled did not expect to be reimbursed, do you believe that there is sufficient flexibility to address the many different situations that may arise, to ensure that anyone who claims under the scheme will be covered?

Can the witnesses provide more detail on the exceptional circumstances provision at paragraph 16? Can you provide an example of circumstances that may require that provision to be used?

Budget Scrutiny 2022-23

Meeting date: 21 December 2021

Gillian Mackay

Given the emergence of the omicron variant, the impact that it will have on the recovery of the health service and the uncertainty around that, how do you see that spending around recovery being allocated?
