Mary Hanafin (Dún Laoghaire, Fianna Fail)

If I may, my answers refer to three individual cases. If the Deputy wishes to submit a parliamentary question on or put in writing the circumstances in each case, I can address them. However, we will not make legislation for a single case. In this section, we are aiming to broaden the definition so that more people in this situation can be supported. It is in the best interests of the child.
