Direct Provision and the International Protection Application Process: Discussion (Resumed)

A case was taken. There are two categories, one of which is people who seek readmission into direct provision having left direct provision. There can be cases taken around readmission. Until September of last year, however, we had not turned away an initial applicant and that happened then happened over two weekends when we did not have accommodation to offer to people.
