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

Peter Burke (FG), Longford-Westmeath

I would be careful about comparing such a serious issue with other sectors of the economy that are getting money.
This is a really serious issue that deserves the utmost attention of Government. I have demonstrated through three strategies and through the increase in resources to €80 million under budget 2026 the acceleration of the number of refuges for women and of safe houses. I acknowledge we do not have enough.
