490. To ask the Minister for Children and Youth Affairs further to Parliamentary Question Nos. 581 of 29 November 2011 and 569 of 22 November 2016, the number of staff allocated to the HSE and health board's separated children team for unaccompanied refugee minors in each of the years 2000 to 2014; and if all records relating to staffing numbers for the separated children team transferred ownership from the HSE to Tusla on establishment in 2014.

Prior to the establishment of Tusla in January 2014, child welfare and protection services, including separated children teams for unaccompanied refugee minors, were provided under the auspices of the Health Service Executive. Tusla again has informed me that the information requested did not transfer on its establishment.

I have asked my officials to contact Tusla directly in order to find out where these records are held and in order that a reply to the Deputy setting out the information requested can be supplied directly to her.
