I agree with the Minister, which is why I found this very hard. My understanding is that Tusla was focusing on early intervention. Believe it or not, the particular one I spoke about has 97 children in it and receives €108. However, I do not wish to dwell on that.

Have we a vision in Tusla to bring in a counsellor to each of the family resource centres so that there is a counsellor on-site or based in the community? That would assist with early intervention and family support. The dots would be joined up in a community. They would be part of and working in the community and they would be instantly accessible. Is there a plan for the Ministry to develop that in family resource centres?
