I have outlined a proactive approach in terms of the recruitment campaign. I hear what Deputy Shortall is saying about additional measures that can be taken in terms of retention and support of social workers in the agency. The Deputy is well aware of the challenging child protection and welfare issues social workers face every day, be it on the telephone or coming through their doors. It is tough work. I hear what the Deputy is saying on additional measures to support retention and thank her for her suggestions. I will bring them to the attention of Tusla.
