National Standards for Foster Care: Statements.
Some nine residential centres have been found to employ one or more members of staff who had no record of Garda checks, while seven had employed staff on whom Garda clearances were obtained only after taking up employment. Has that problem been resolved? Inspectors said they were impressed with the overall warmth and care shown by staff in the major centres, to whom I pay tribute.
