I have another question on women's rights. It is something for which the Tánaiste indicated support in the past. Starting on Saturday, Change the Conversation involves 16 days of action by Women's Aid on violence against women in the home. It has written to all Members and asked them to wear a purple ribbon. Given the Tánaiste's support and indications from most female Members from the Fine Gael Party for the production of a further Sexual Abuse and Violence Ireland, SAVI, report, will she please lean on the Taoiseach to spend the money and come up with a comprehensive report on sexual and domestic violence in the country? The last report was published fifteen and a half years ago.

Sexual and domestic violence has been on the increase and has gone under the radar. We really need a report. The Taoiseach complained a report would cost about €1 million. The women of Ireland, and the most vulnerable women and children of Ireland, are worth that money. I would like to know what the Tánaiste thinks and whether she can play a role, as a woman and Tánaiste, in convincing the Taoiseach, Deputy Leo Varadkar, to get out the cheque book and spend money on a much needed report, given that it is Change the Conversation week.

I agree with Deputy Smith that another SAVI report would be very important. We need up-to-date macro information on sexual and domestic violence in this country. The Taoiseach does not need convincing. This matter was discussed at a Cabinet sub-committee last week. The initial scoping work has begun to determine how precisely it will be carried out.
