Ceist:

638. Deputy Roderic O'Gorman asked the Minister for Children, Disability and Equality further to Parliamentary Question No. 1770 of 9 June 2026, and in light of her statement in that reply that Tusla’s allocation framework is not yet implemented as there is no formal staff agreement, the legal basis for non-qualified Tusla staff being employed to undertake social work tasks, as outlined in HIQA's inspection of Child Protection and Welfare Services in Dublin North City which was published in November 2025; and if she will make a statement on the matter.

Statutory and operational responsibility for the delivery of child protection and welfare services is a matter for Tusla, the Child and Family Agency. The Deputy is seeking information in relation to an operational matter for Tusla. Consequently, I have referred the matter to Tusla and requested that a direct response be provided to the Deputy.
