Challenges Facing Refugee and Migrant Children in Ireland: Discussion

Ms Kate Duggan:

That is the benefit of having advocacy built into our process, and the right of review. We are the first to say we did not have that previously. We have worked really hard with all of our partner stakeholders in recent months to strengthen the criteria. It is still not gold standard in terms of our ability to deliver, but it is certainly strengthened. We think the benefit of that will be seen.
