I have a summary of the survey that was conducted which I can distribute to members after the meeting because I asked for copies of it to be printed. The Deputy will recall that in February or March I was concerned by the high number of what were considered to be new presentations over that period.

When we made a deeper dive with the Dublin Regional Homeless Executive, we encountered this error whereby people were categorised incorrectly. The number of those categorisation errors was reflected as we uncovered them in the March and April reports. I then asked for a group of people to go and do a much more detailed survey of each local authority to try and get a proper understanding of how we were counting people and where they were.
