Caoimhghín Ó Caoláin (Cavan-Monaghan, Sinn Fein)

Question 89: To ask the Minister for Children and Youth Affairs if her attention has been drawn to the fact that the absence of a comprehensive 24 hour child protection service has left Gardaí as frontline protectors of children in emergency; her plans to rectify this deficiency in the State's response mechanism; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
