I thank Ms McDonagh and Ms Joyce for being here with us this afternoon. I acknowledge that there is a more detailed submission paper in addition to what Ms Joyce has just contributed. I will probably start at the end. I am interested to hear the witnesses' views on more Travellers taking up roles and responsibilities within the Tusla system, for example working as social care workers or family liaison officers. I ask them to comment on the need to create such roles and ensure they are filled.
