I see that. It is a bit concerning, and I hear the point that there is a lot of nuance here because some of them could be adults. For most of them, the assumption is that they are going off to the UK. Have there been bad outcomes in terms of children who have gone missing from Tusla's system, namely the 538 children in special separation or whatever it is called? Is there a European-wide network of communication regarding children? Presumably there is a similar service or an equivalent to Tusla in the UK. Does Tusla have any kind of communication with it to share information? How does that work?
