Is the role of Sage Advocacy and the counselling services only available to those based in Ireland, or is it also available in Britain and further overseas given the number of survivors now living outside this State?

The survivors' asks around advocacy and other supports available to them - or that may be made available to them under this Bill - included a one-stop shop because of their profoundly negative experience dealing with State agencies and less than positive interactions with many arms of the government over years. Does the Bill provide the one-stop shop the survivors have asked for and, again, are the services provided by Sage Advocacy available to those outside the State?
