1299. To ask the Tánaiste and Minister for Justice and Equality if the person that has been arrested for a murder (details supplied), was an adult at the time of the alleged killing; if so, the reason they were located in a Tusla run residence; and the reason child protect guidelines were not in place.

I have been fully briefed by An Garda Síochána in relation to the recent death at a Tusla residential facility in Dublin. My deepest sympathies go to the family and friends of the young person who has died.
A person has been charged and the matter is now before the courts. Where a criminal act has occurred, the Department is precluded from commenting or providing detailed information, as it may prejudice any consequent investigations or court cases.
