The other area I want to touch on is youth work. As someone who worked with Foróige and who had the privilege of serving on its national executive a long number of years ago, I am very much aware of the work it is doing, and the witnesses referred to this earlier. Have we adequate supports in place in regard to voluntary youth organisations like Foróige? Schools can do a certain amount but there is nothing better than youth clubs and voluntary organisations for getting a clear message out there. Are we doing enough on that in urban areas?
