When I was presented with this for the first time it was clear that it raised very serious issues.

Before the Minister tried to distract me, I was about to raise the core question of whether failings ultimately lead to the murder of Sylvia Roche Kenny. Perhaps that murder could have been prevented. That is a difficult statement to make. I did not want to discuss these matters in detail in the House but I have details of all the cases. The Taoiseach described the issue as grave for that reason. In one case, a young woman who was savagely beaten received €150 - €50 from each attacker.
