Written answers
The Deputy will be aware that it is not appropriate for me to comment on individual cases, in particular where it may lead to the identification of a child. I have written to Tusla, the Child and Family Agency, and asked if the case is known to them, and if so, to give the matter the appropriate attention.
I must also remind the Deputy that I am not in a position to intervene in matters which have been before the courts, or in the professional judgement or decision making of social workers. If there is a concern about the safety, wellbeing or welfare of the children to whom the Deputy refers, the appropriate body to contact is Tusla, the Child and Family Agency.
