Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality
Antisocial Behaviour: Discussion
Ms Kayleigh Canning:
I will come in there. We would not necessarily be aware of that level of oversight. In individual GYD projects, referrals are received from a number of different sources, one of which is the GYDP. An Garda Síochána might refer into the projects. However, if they choose not refer into a project, then the project would not necessarily have a lot of information on those young people because consent would not have been sought to share that information. That would be outside our level of knowledge in terms of the oversight from a Tusla point of view.
