Enda Kenny (Mayo, Fine Gael)

Does the Taoiseach agree that in this jurisdiction we must not be found wanting in what is the worst nightmare for parents, namely, to find their children tragically involved in something like this. Following the initiatives taken in the UK, we cannot afford to wait two or three years to follow suit. Can the Taoiseach guarantee that the Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform and the Minister of State with responsibility for children will see to it that providing resources and getting our agencies working together in our children's interests will be given absolute priority?
