The parents of several victims of the Kerry mental health scandal are calling for a public inquiry into Kerry CAMHS and the HSE.

The Maskey Report found 46 children were 'significantly harmed' after being prescribed inappropriate medication by a junior doctor.

But Kerry CAMHS Family Support Group says the review doesn't reflect the serious impact of the 'gross negligence'.

It says more than 46 children were seriously harmed - and local TD Michael Healy-Rae supports their call for a public inquiry.

"These people have to really be listened to, because these are the people, the parents of the children who are adversely affected and who were harmed by Kerry CAMHS, they have to be listened to.

"So when they are coming together, and when they are saying they want nothing less than a public inquiry, I would give it great credit.

"And I would say that, of course, parents who believe this, I would support them."
