Tusla, the Child and Family Agency, has statutory responsibility for care and protection for victims of domestic, sexual or gender-based violence, whether in the context of the family or otherwise. Accordingly, Tusla has provided funding to rape crisis centres since its creation in 2014.

I have requested that Tusla respond directly to the Deputy on this matter.
