It is both a specific case and a general issue.

In Questions Nos. 21 and 22 Deputy Ciara Conway specifically mentioned the model review. There is a specific reason for it. It is a young agency which brings together three previously separate organisations in one agency and it is a challenge. Tusla is focused on the need to address legacy issues arising from its three parent organisations, including the inherited structure from the HSE and we all know how complex that was. It also needs to address the challenges posed by the development of new services against a backdrop of an increasing demand for its services. To address these issues and initiate a review project to examine the agency's current structures and how it operates, Accenture was engaged to assist with the project in September 2014. It came to an end in December 2014 with a draft high level operating model review report. Changes are proposed on how the organisation is structured to better support the delivery of services to children and families. I will not read all of the long note I have been given. The bottom line is that it is a new agency which brings three agencies together. There are opportunities to do things in a far more cohesive, coherent and more effective way to better deliver for children and their parents. That is really what the point of the service is.

I am not quite sure what the Deputy's questions were on the survivors of sexual abuse.
