I appreciate the Minister of State's reply but a more direct question must be put regarding the Women's Aid refuge in Dundalk, which services County Louth and surrounding counties. I would be grateful if he could relay this back to the Minister for the Environment, Community and Local Government and if he could find out more information about the cut to the funding and whether it has been replicated throughout the country, which I do not believe it has. This will not alleviate the problem of providing refuge for victims of violence and it is important that we do not lose this valuable service.
