I want clarification of something the Taoiseach said in the Dáil yesterday. I want to fact-check the figures with the witnesses. I think the Taoiseach said 15 Ukrainian people coming here under the temporary protection directive are arriving per day and 45 leave State-provided accommodation. This gives a net figure of 175 fewer people per week in State-provided accommodation. Is that accurate? Is that the officials' understanding from a departmental point of view?
