Perhaps that can be changed by statutory instrument at secondary level as opposed to having to change primary legislation. That is something we can certainly bring to the attention of the Department of Education.

In respect of the professional advocacy service, and I believe this was an issue that was also raised by Ms McDonnell Byrne at the end of her piece, can I ask Ms Lewis if that is something she feels should be put on a statutory basis. How does she believe we as legislators should ensure there is provision of a professional advocacy service for survivors? Would Ms Lewis like to say how she would like to see it?
