As the Deputy is aware, earlier this year the Government established Cuan, a new statutory agency with a dedicated focus on Domestic Sexual and Gender-Based Violence.  

The agency has a specific mandate to drive the implementation of the Zero Tolerance: Third National Strategy on Domestic, Sexual and Gender-Based Violence across Government, bringing the expertise and focus required to tackle this complex social issue. As part of it's remit, the agency has responsibility for the provision of DSGBV services, including the provision and funding of refuge spaces and rape crisis centers. 

As such, I have referred the questions posed by the Deputy to Cuan for direct reply.

Question No. 350 answered with Question No. 335.
