I will speak to the Minister, Deputy O'Gorman, and see if he can get the Senator a copy of the report so that he has a line of sight on the situation. As I said, I will take information on the population of 10,000 back to the Minister. I totally take on board the fact that the Senator has said there are barriers in terms of transport for people in Ballymahon.

The role of the family resource centre is to be a front door so that when people are in crisis they can walk in, rather than having to put transport in place and deal with other obstacles. I want to acknowledge the work of family resource centres. That is why we all want to have one. The 121 we have are probably too few.
