Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 9 July 2019
699. Deputy Denise Mitchell asked the Minister for Children and Youth Affairs the number of children waiting on the appointment of a social worker by region in tabular form; and the average length of time such children have been on a waiting list. [29781/19]
View answerThis question relates to an operational matter for Tusla, the Child and Family Agency. I have therefore referred the matter to Tusla, and asked that a direct response be provided to the Deputy.
I can inform the Deputy that data on the number of cases awaiting allocation is reported monthly, and published in the National Performance and Activity Dashboard on the Tusla website.
