Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs
Children's Rights Alliance Report Card 2019: Discussion
Joan Freeman (Independent) | Oireachtas source
The solution is to involve people from the Traveller community in government. They should be on county councils or running for election. Is that happening at all? I cannot understand how the money is being sent back.
The second question I have relates to my one-trick pony, namely, mental health.
Has the Children's Rights Alliance made any findings on mental health on children and the available services? I am deeply surprised to hear the witnesses say the Government has scored a C grade, I am deeply surprised. When I say "deeply surprised", I do not mean "pleasantly". I do not believe it has achieved a C grade and would have put it all down as an F grade. I would be interested to hear what the findings were.
