Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs

Governance Issues in Scouting Ireland: Discussion

9:30 am

Ms Aisling Kelly:

In relation to victims, it is a situation where that expertise begets confidence. In the short time that we have had the benefit of Mr. Elliott with the organisation, one can see that there is a dramatic response by victims to that because they see that there is someone there and a team in place that have the appropriate training to deal with this. We are stressing to the committee that it is expertise that we need because it will allow victims to come forward.
