Sexual Abuse and Violence in Ireland, by Hannah McGee and colleagues in association with the Dublin Rape Crisis Centre, was published in 2002. The publication has become known as the SAVI report. The cost of approximately £500,000 or €635,000 for this research was borne by Atlantic Philanthropies, the then Department of Health and Children and the then Department of Justice and Equality. The Dublin Rape Crisis Centre has been seeking a second SAVI report. I am awaiting sight of its proposal in this regard. I will consider this proposal on receipt, in consultation with ministerial colleagues.
