The Tusla Strategic Action Plan arising from the HIQA investigation into the management of allegations of child sexual abuse against adults of concern by the Child and Family Agency has been approved by the Tusla Board. The plan has been submitted to my Department and to the Expert Assurance Group I have established to monitor the implementation of the recommendations, and advise Tusla and my Department. The Action Plan is built around nine themes, and a named member of the senior management team is identified as the lead under each one. Each action in the plan has a timeframe for completion.
