The Minister, Deputy McEntee, might be better able than me to answer that question but she is in the Seanad. The community safety partnerships are an important innovation, on which she is really leading, and will help to make our communities both safer and stronger.

Once I have met him, I may be able to provide more up-to-date information on how the pilots are going. What is clear is that one size will not fit all. What might work in Longford or on the north side of Dublin, for example, will not necessarily work in County Cork. We will have to figure it out as we go along.
