Alan Shatter
Ceist:130 Mr. Shatter asked the Minister for Health the number of children at present regarded by each of the health boards as being at risk from non-accidental injury inflicted by parents other than sexual abuse and from sexual abuse by parents or other family members; the criteria used by health boards in determining whether children should be taken into care; and whether such lists, when maintained, are limited to children under the age of 16 years or whether they extend to children up to the age of 18 years.
