As the Deputy is aware, Cuan, the new statutory agency with a dedicated focus on Domestic Sexual and Gender-Based Violence, was established earlier this year.
The agency has a specific mandate to drive the implementation of the Zero Tolerance: Third National Strategy on Domestic, Sexual and Gender-Based Violence across Government, bringing the expertise and focus required to tackle this complex social issue.
As part of its remit, the agency has responsibility for the provision of DSGBV services, including the provision and funding of refuge spaces.
I referred the previous question posed by the Deputy to Cuan for direct reply, and have now flagged this further question with the agency.
