I am committed to combatting all forms of domestic, sexual and gender-based violence.

'Zero Tolerance,' the Third National Strategy on Domestic, Sexual and Gender-based Violence (DSGBV), set out an ambitious five-year programme of reform to achieve a society which does not accept DSGBV or the attitudes which underpin these crimes.

An Garda Síochána and my Department are continuing to work hard to strengthen trust and confidence in the system, so that victims will feel confident to report what has happened to them and get justice.

I have sought the information requested from An Garda Siochana including clarification on the term Domestic Abuse Coordinator Teams. I will write to the Deputy directly once the information is to hand.
