There have been several meetings between Praxis and my officials throughout the last year, and I personally met Praxis Care in March 2013, and again in March 2014.

As the services provided by Praxis fall primarily within the devolved sphere in Northern Ireland I have not visited a Praxis residential site. I am, however, aware from conversations I have had with a range of people of the excellent work the charity does with its service users. My Department and I value greatly the contribution that Praxis has made, and continues to make, to the community in Northern Ireland.
