Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Housing (Homeless Families) Bill 2017: Discussion

9:30 am

Mr. David Kelly:

On exits from homelessness, the exit data is recorded in performance reports prepared by the regional lead authorities for each quarter. They are linked to the funding arrangements. Each local authority, or each lead authority, is required to prepare a report. That report includes exits from homelessness. That exit data is based on individuals who have been assessed as homeless. It is not necessarily people who have been in emergency accommodation. It includes people who have presented as homeless and where it has been prevented through HAP.
