I propose to take Questions Nos. 738 and 739 together.
The stages of completion of each of the projects in Cosc's Priority Research Programme for 2009 are set out in the tabular statement below.
| Project | Stage of Completion |
| A mapping of services provided by both State and non-State organisations to those affected by domestic, sexual and gender-based violence/abuse | The fieldwork and data analysis completed |
| A mapping of the programmes on domestic, sexual and gender-based violence/abuse currently delivered in post-primary schools in Ireland | The fieldwork and data analysis completed |
| An examination of court system responses to domestic, sexual and gender-based violence/abuse and models of best practice | Completed |
| A mapping of programmes working with perpetrators of domestic violence/abuse and an examination of models of best practice | Completed |
| An examination of data collection systems and procedures in relation to domestic, sexual and gender-based violence/abuse in Ireland | At the final stage of the fieldwork |
| A general population attitudinal survey on sexual violence/abuse | Not proceeded with in 2009 |
| A survey of prevalence of sexual violence/abuse in the general population | Not proceeded with in 2009 |
| An examination of the economic cost in various sectors of domestic, sexual and gender-based violence/abuse | Not proceeded with in 2009 |
The projects not proceeded with in 2009 will be reconsidered in the context of the preparation of Cosc's Priority Research Programme for 2010.
