New legislation is being drafted by the Minister for Justice and Equality and her Department in respect of compliance with European Union requirements relating to sexual violence and rape, and that will be presented in the new year.

I share the Deputy's view regarding domestic violence and rape. As the Deputy will be aware, there will be a statements after lunch arising from a whistleblower who showed courage in telling her story about sexual abuse and the treatment meted out to her. I expect the Deputy will have an opportunity to comment on that.
