Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs

Governance and Control Procedures in Tusla - Child and Family Agency: Discussion

9:00 am

Mr. Fred McBride:

What Mr. Gibson said may answer Deputy Neville's question on the 51,000 child protection or abuse referrals. The balance of the 122,000 referrals are what we call general welfare concerns, which are usually lower level concerns than specific allegations of abuse.

Deputy Ó Laoghaire raised data protection questions.
