I have only one question for IFCA. EPIC raised the matter of the €40,000 disparity between public and private foster care. Has the association reviewed this or brought it up with the Department? What is the plan in terms of reviewing that disparity? I find it horrific to think that we are possibly spending €40,000 on administration. Where is that funding going? Can EPIC answer that question? Has it reviewed it?
