However, I recognise the significant demand being placed on Tusla. That is the reason for the significant uplift in its funding, and rightly so.

The Deputy referenced very complex cases. There are a number of challenges in this regard. There is the challenge of the unaccompanied minors from Ukraine and young people seeking international protection. There are also, as the Deputy mentioned, very complex individual cases where young people may require special care or whatever.
