Minister for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth

My Department does not allocate a budget amount to Tusla in respect of youth counselling specifically. As the matter raised by the Deputy is an operational matter for Tusla, the Child and Family Agency, I have referred the question to Tusla for direct response to the Deputy.
