As the Deputy is aware, my Department and Tusla have jointly commissioned a literature review which will aid the deliberations and decision making about how Tusla responds to and intervenes in the institutional, organisational, and organised abuse of children and young people. The work of this project is confined to the examination of institutional, organisational, and organised abuse.

The Joint Working Group overseeing the literature review is currently considering the draft review submitted by the commissioned research company, and completion of this work is expected shortly.
