DESC refuses FOI request

A Department has refused to answer a Freedom of Information request about the number of children currently being seen by the Mental Health Service.

A question was put forward to the Department of Education, Sport and Culture about young people aged between 11 - 18 currently seeing the Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service.

The request also asked how many children are currently waiting to be seen. 

In its response, DESC  said it refuses to answer the request because of practical reasons - the department says it doesn't hold or have access to the information.
