Mr. Gearóid Begley:

-----of one's report and one gets that back so he or she knows it has landed. Then one gets a follow-up from Tusla. Sometimes it depends on the particular office. One would either get a pre-prepared form saying we received it or one would get an individual letter from the case officer saying we have received his or her disclosure. On retrospective disclosures, we have a process in place for Tusla whereby they go to one particular person within Tusla. They are sent by email to the person and the document is encrypted.

From our perspective, as I mentioned earlier on, we keep a record of the information that we get. Some of them do not go any further than us offering advice to the person. As I said earlier on, if they are not happy with that and they feel that this matter should be reported, we say to them they are at liberty of course to make the report directly themselves.
