516. Deputy Shane Cassells asked the Minister for Children and Youth Affairs the number of public consultations held by her Department or by a State agency under the remit of her Department; the number of replies received per consultation; and the cost of each consultation in each of the years 2011 to 2017 and to date in 2018, in tabular form. [26455/18]
Amharc ar fhreagraDetails of the number of public consultations, replies received and costs incurred from 2011 to date in 2018 by my Department are set out in the following table. The overall objective is to keep costs of this nature to a minimum.
As regards the State agencies under the remit of my Department, I have requested Tusla, the Child and Family Agency, the Office of the Ombudsman for Children, the Adoption Authority of Ireland and Oberstown Children Detention Campus to forward the requested information directly to the Deputy.
