View answerCombatting all forms of domestic, sexual and gender-based violence (DSGBV) is a priority for me and my Department and this is reflected in a range of policies and legislation, as well as unprecedented increases in Budget allocations.
Cuan, the Domestic, Sexual and Gender Based Violence Agency has a total budget of just over €59 million in 2024, some €40.115 million of which transferred from the Department for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth. The majority of this funding will be allocated to the provision of DSGBV services.
