I know the Department of children officials cannot speak here but if they can speak through the Minister, can they give any examples of where these designated centres will be? We are talking about hundreds or perhaps thousands of people. Based on what the Minister is saying, this will effectively be a completely new system and stratum of accommodation that is completely unrelated to the accommodation in which Ukrainians are currently in. Is it possible to give any indication of what kind of places these are or whether the Department of children knows where all these people will go?
