Public Accounts Committee

2017 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 40 - Children and Youth Affairs

9:00 am

Mr. Pat Smyth:

There is no doubt that the agency which is providing a social service and has social workers is definitely in competition with us for social workers. Undoubtedly, some social workers, no more than any of the rest of us, may choose to work in that kind of area rather than with Tusla.
