I understand that the funding of therapeutic services to victims of sexual violence is primarily a matter for Tusla. I am advised that in 2018, the Tusla national provision for frontline Domestic, Sexual and Gender-based Violence services was €23.8 million.

The Department of Children and Youth Affairs, may be in a position to advise further. The Department of Health has no remit in the area.
