I thank the Leader and the Minister for Children and Youth Affairs for agreeing to a debate at such short notice following the "Prime Time" programme on child care facilities. What we saw was disturbing, shocking and totally unacceptable. We saw poor practice and a dereliction of care, bordering on abuse. I am pleased that a comprehensive investigation is now under way by the HSE and the Garda.
We also need to acknowledge the many fine crèches that operate in communities around the country.
