Yes. I am conscious that in any of the reports that have been done, students are always unanimous about the importance of sex education and relationships and sexuality education, RSE, in schools, and are aware of the shortfalls that exist in that area of education in Irish schools. Did RSE come up on the periphery of the students' research? The unwillingness of first year students to talk about periods or whatever was mentioned in the opening statement. Does the lack of RSE have an impact in terms of young people being able to talk about it?
