Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Reports on Homelessness: Discussion

9:30 am

Ms Mary Hurley:

What I am saying is that we publish monthly reports in respect of those in emergency accommodation. There are various mechanisms in terms of housing lists and those in emergency accommodation but the monthly reports that we publish relate to those in emergency accommodation. I am saying that those individuals to whom the Deputy refers are not in emergency accommodation. I am also saying that they may very well be on a housing list and waiting on social housing but they are in a secure home and are not at risk of homelessness and not in emergency accommodation.
