Financial compensation will be provided to the families of vulnerable young children who suffered significant harm while under the care of the Child and Adolescent Mental Health Service (Camhs), the Tánaiste has said.

Leo Varadkar has said he was "disturbed and worried" by the findings of a review of the Camhs service in south Kerry.
