Chapter 13 - Guardian Ad Litem Follow-up Report (27 Oct 2022) Catherine Murphy: We need to get an overview of this. I can completely understand that Mr. McCarthy will not say there is not complete - that this is not an all-of-Government approach.

Chapter 13 - Guardian Ad Litem Follow-up Report (27 Oct 2022) Catherine Murphy: The Ukraine war did not start until February. October of last year was very different. It may well have been that there were more to come in to work on international protection, for example, but we do not know that and it is what we have to see.

Chapter 13 - Guardian Ad Litem Follow-up Report (27 Oct 2022) Catherine Murphy: Some 93% of providers signed up to the core funding model; 7% did not. Are they still being paid or have they dropped out? My second question is about the county childcare committees, CCCs. To whom do they respond? Do they respond to the Department or to the local authorities? Are they bringing to the Department issues with regard to gaps in the service?

Now that this information and data are no longer available, can that be replaced just by internal audit? Will Tusla carry out sampling, for example?
