Dr. Aisling Gillen:

With regard to our work with families, we fund the voluntary and community sector with €83 million. There was a question earlier about FRCs and €15.6 million of that goes into the FRC programme. We have 109 FRCs across the country and 11 new ones are coming on stream this year. We fund organisations such as Barnardos, which is a charity, Foróige and 698 voluntary community sector providers across the country. That is a vast skill mix and many of those professionals are involved in our Meitheal process, our child and family support networks, our early intervention and early help with families and supporting families in a family support way across the continuum of care. If a risk escalates and the child is referred to child protection services the supports for that family retain themselves. The practical supports of going into the home and supporting that family retain themselves as the child moves up the continuum of care.
