Ms Noeline Blackwell:

I will speak briefly and then I will hand over to Ms McCarthy, who is involved in such work.

The question of power and control is really important. Every single rape involves non-consensual sex and, therefore, involves an abuse of power. That is key to the people who come to the centre. That sense of a loss of control and loss of their own power is one of the things, in the therapeutic work of the Rape Crisis Centre, that we seek to build - a person's better understanding of their own power. My colleague will say a little bit about the matter.
