Vote 40 - Children and Youth Affairs (13 Jun 2019) Seán Fleming: That information on the staff is very useful to have put on the record. Going back to the children, I think longitudinal studies are being done. I presume there is a lot of learning from the children who go through Tusla. I refer to the 500 or 600, the less than 10%, who are not just in regular fostering because their parents are not there. Where do they end up when they are in their 20s?...

Vote 40 - Children and Youth Affairs (13 Jun 2019) Seán Fleming: How does Tusla maintain these children's school attendance? It is a big issue.

Vote 40 - Children and Youth Affairs (13 Jun 2019) Seán Fleming: With regard to the 600 who are in other care rather than the regular fostering system, are addiction issues encountered? What interventions does Tusla make? I am sure there are myriad problems in this area.
- Public Accounts Committee: 2017 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 40 - Children and Youth Affairs (13 Jun 2019) Seán Fleming: Many State agencies could have an input in dealing with such issues. Which is the lead agency? Is it Tusla?

- Public Accounts Committee: 2017 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 40 - Children and Youth Affairs (13 Jun 2019) Seán Fleming: With regard to Tusla's staffing constraints, we all hear about the unallocated cases. I know we are technically dealing with the 2017 accounts, but I remember that quite a few years ago there was a big issue in Portlaoise or the midlands. A filing cabinet of unallocated cases showed up. When Tusla receives a referral, how long does it take for the case to be allocated? What triage system...
