We have all heard of the undocumented Irish in the United States having to keep their heads down and having to keep away from the authorities. There is a constant fear. One of the things which struck me about the presentation was that women who are victims of domestic violence and crime could be fearful of going to An Garda Síochána because it would bring them to the attention of the authorities. Will the witnesses speak about the impact of this on families?
