Minister for Justice, Helen McEntee TD and Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage, Darragh O'Brien TD welcomed the commencement of a site selection process for the building of a domestic violence refuge in the Cavan/Monaghan region.
One of the regions identified as a 'Phase 1' priority for refuge development under the Zero Tolerance strategy to combat domestic, sexual and gender-based violence.
In addition to identifying suitable locations for refuge development, the process will focus on identifying potential locations for safe home development. Ronan Gargan spoke to Deputy Niamh Smyth about the current status of the site selection process.
