I wish to ask about restorative justice. As I understand it, there is a community-based project in Dublin and one in Tipperary, but it does not seem to be widespread throughout the State. I saw some information in recent days to the effect that there was a spend of €532,000 on restorative justice in 2020. That would seem to be a very small portion of funding.
