My next question relates to whether Tusla has considered making it compulsory for CCTV to be installed in crèches. I would never compare children to animals because they are clearly a million times more important. I am only making a comparison for illustrative purposes. There are incidents involving the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine whereby very intensive CCTV footage is used to ensure that animals are taken care of properly. When it comes to children, surely we can have a system whereby CCTV footage is used. Is that something Tusla would be in favour of, particularly as it would certainly make its job easier?
