The information sought by the Deputy is contained in the following table insofar as it relates to my Department. During this time funding has been, in the main, provided by Cosc, the National Office for the Prevention of Domestic, Sexual and Gender-based Violence towards awareness-raising activities and by the Commission for the Support of Victims of Crime and the Victims of Crime Office for court accompaniment services. However, the Deputy may be aware that core funding for Women's Aid is provided through Tusla, the Child and Family Agency, which is the responsibility of my colleague, the Minister for Children and Youth Affairs.
