We would all agree that women and children experiencing domestic violence are incredibly vulnerable and that the facilities in the State for helping them are not nearly good enough. The Minister said lately that funding for domestic violence services is being protected to the same level as that in 2015. I assure her that will not be nearly good enough for a deprived county like Wexford where the problem is particularly acute. Will the Government see fit to examine more closely the needs in such areas with a view to increasing funding?
