Amendments to the Children Act 2001 contained in the Criminal Justice Act 2006 will result in the transfer of responsibility for four of the children detention schools currently within my remit to the remit of my colleague, the Tánaiste and Minister for Justice, Equality and Law Reform. Responsibility for the fifth school will transfer to the Health Service Executive. It is intended that the transfer of the children detention schools, including the organisation referred to by the Deputy, will take place in early 2007.
