The committee will follow it up and try to put pressure on. As Dr. Muldoon has said, gender-based and domestic violence are a problem. Everyone admits they are on the increase. To think a strategy such as this, which would be a massive help for such small money, is not happening when I can assure everyone that while we are having this conversation the HSE has wasted this kind of money already today. As a committee, we will chase it up and come back.

Recently Dr. Muldoon attended St. Joseph's national school in Tipperary town about a development programme there. It is the growth mindset initiative which embraces all of the challenges and overcomes the setbacks. Will Dr. Muldoon give us a further insight into this initiative and how it could be spread to various schools?
