============================================================

John Brady (SF), Wicklow

I believe the vacuum that exists relates to an earlier question of mine regarding communication with communities. Unfortunately, up until this point, there has not been appropriate or adequate communication with communities and this has allowed a vacuum to develop and some of these minority groups have filled it with misinformation and preyed on the vulnerability of communities experiencing challenges due to a lack of services. We need a very strong communication strategy from Government to challenge the misinformation, hatred and bile put out by this very small number of people who are not representative of communities anywhere in this State. We need a very strong communications strategy to challenge that misinformation.
