Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs

Recruitment and Retention of Social Workers: Discussion (Resumed)

Professor Michelle Norris:

I thank the Senator for the advice. I wish to acknowledge that the Department of Children and Youth Affairs has recently taken action on this issue and is progressing it centrally. It seems to me that some progress is being made. I welcome its work and also that of the Department of Health. We found that progress is moving on. I wish to emphasise that it is not that we have been sitting on our laurels and not raising this as an issue.
