Professor Robbie Gilligan:

At the moment, nobody has it. Our view is that there needs to be a co-ordinated approach, for example, when other people are paid during field work or at least have their expenses paid. We have to look at making the pathway into social work as a career more attractive. There needs to be public education about the value of social work as a career to society and to the individual but at the moment it is not clear who would run such a campaign.
