Mr. Fred McBride:

What is the position with personnel on the ground? If there is a violence in a small village in the country, is Tusla accessible? What is the first agency called? I suppose it is the Garda. Is Tusla called in immediately after to analyse the issue that where, for example, there is violence or a sexual assault against a child? Does Tusla make the decisions or is it An Garda Síochána? Who makes the decision to take a child into care or to a family resource centre? Is Tusla prominent in that process?
