Mr. Jim Gibson:

We have a service level agreement with it. We are a key funder of it. We fund it to the sum of €3.5 million per annum. Therefore, it needs to conform with all elements of our agency as the child protection and welfare service. The majority of the funding is for aftercare services. We do engage with Focus Ireland. What I am saying is I would like to engage with it on services for homeless children. There is a substantial investment, not just by Tusla but also by the HSE and other State agencies, in services provided in lots of communities. There is a need for a co-ordinated, integrated response to help children who are homeless. A good example is a model we have developed at the Wellview Family Resource Centre. I believe the Minister for Children and Youth Affairs has visited the programme put in place there and spoken highly about its involvement. It provides practical support and help, but it is also able to provide very specific services and signposts people affected by homelessness to a more therapeutic counselling service, as required.
