Martin Conway: I have a question about the family risk programme. I know the pathways have been identified in terms of the family risk programme.

I am also conscious that Professor Ó Laoide has to leave at 12.30 p.m. so...

Joint Committee On Health: Impact of Covid-19 on Children: Discussion (20 Oct 2021)

Martin Conway: That is my point. Does the ISPCC feel a certain responsibility if a particular child is ringing consistently with a particular issue whereby the child could be in imminent danger or there is a serious problem?

It is symptomatic of an attitude towards people with...
