The Taoiseach informed the Dáil a fortnight ago that the expert group considering a second sexual abuse and violence in Ireland, SAVI, report was nearing the completion of its work. He said he was keen to get the study of sexual and domestic violence up and running in the next couple of months. As he is aware, 16 years have passed since the first SAVI report was published, a report that is widely regarded by women and stakeholders as groundbreaking, but a second SAVI report is undoubtedly now needed. Has the expert group completed its work? Have its recommendations been brought to Cabinet? When will the group's recommendations be published? What is the timeframe for completion of the SAVI 2 report?
