In 2018, a young child presented to the Galway sexual assault unit for examination. Documents I have seen suggest that gardaí reported on this the day before the examination took place. The child was also the subject of a specialist Garda interview that does not appear to have been referred to the Director of Public Prosecutions. The programme for Government outlines supports and therapeutic services for vulnerable children but today this child has no services or support. Tusla has closed the case, despite numerous referrals from various agencies, including Barnardo's. I have highlighted this case to the Minister for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth so will the Government work with him to examine the systematic failures that took place and also to find other children who may not have been best served by similar failures?

That is very concerning. As the Deputy appreciates, I cannot comment on individual cases and I do not have information on any individual cases for reasons of privacy and data protection. I will certainly let the Minister know the Deputy expressed these concerns today.
