As the Deputy is aware, the expert Scoping Group has completed a draft report considering the availability of data and making recommendations on a study to identify the prevalence of sexual abuse and violence in Ireland and emerging trends. A further piece of technical work is now being completed so that proposals can be brought to Cabinet in the coming weeks.

I can assure the Deputy that once the report has been considered by Government I intend to make an announcement to outline the way forward in relation to this issue.
