Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
Update on Homelessness: Discussion
Mr. David Kelly:
Refusals are centered primarily on the basis of either the accommodation not being suitable or either the tenant or the landlord not being interested in selling or in taking up the residency. Tenants who choose not to or who do not want to continue with that tenancy, by virtue of the risk of homelessness are prioritised for allocation thereafter.
