Leo Varadkar (FG), Dublin West

I thank the Deputy. As I said earlier at a different event, the figures produced by Women's Aid are very concerning. Just this year so far, five women have been killed as a consequence of domestic and gender-based violence. It is something the Government is acting on and is very concerned about. The Minister, Deputy McEntee, is taking the lead in implementing the strategy in that regard. Last year for example, 12 additional safe homes were put into place and the total number will further increase from 32 to 50 by the end of this year.
