Joint Oireachtas Committee on Children and Youth Affairs

Impact of Homelessness on Children: Discussion (Resumed)

Dr. Niall Muldoon:

Choices are being made but everybody needs a house. If there is a constitutional right to a house and a safe, dignified and secure place to live that is affordable for everybody, the Government would be making a statement to those 70,000 people and the people who may be in homelessness now. We would ensure that in future, those people would not fall into that situation. The best interest analysis becomes less and less important as we create infrastructure.
