My Department published a report entitled Sexual Assault Treatment Services - A National Review in 2006. This report identified the key areas for the development of sexual assault treatment services.

I do not propose to publish any policy or strategy documents on this issue during the coming year

My Department has published no such documents nor is it intended to publish any during the coming year. However, earlier this year, the Department of Justice, Equality and Law Reform published a discussion document entitled 'The Management of Sex Offenders' and, at the request of my Department, the HSE is examining those aspects of this document that relate to the health services.
