556. To ask the Tánaiste and Minister for Justice and Equality if there has been any formal review of interagency coordination between sexual assault treatment units, Gardaí, and social services in the cases of group sexual assault, particularly where minors and vulnerable adults are involved; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Cuan, the statutory domestic, sexual and gender-based violence agency, operating under the aegis of my Department, has responsibility for coordinating the implementation of the Third National Strategy and overseeing delivery across all relevant departments, agencies and stakeholders.

It is a priority for Cuan to establish strong governance, oversight, and reporting structures for implementation and enhanced cross Government collaboration.

As this question concerns the coordination of multi-agency responses, I have referred it to Cuan in line with their statutory responsibility for leading and coordinating delivery of the strategy.
