Tusla has said it will be targeting the recruitment of more foster carers after a Hiqa report found there was a shortage of emergency foster care placements in the Cork area.
The inspection by the Health Information and Quality Authority found there were not enough foster carers to respond to children who needed to be admitted to care in an emergency.
