Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality
Direct Provision: Discussion with Ombudsman
Jim O'Callaghan (Dublin Bay South, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source
Tensions arise when direct provision centres are announced in certain areas. Mr. Tyndall spoke in his report about the outrageous lawlessness in Rooskey and Moville. Buildings were burned down. There is concern in Oughterard at present. Is there anything to be said for considering a process similar to the fostering of children? I refer to when people arrive into the country seeking international protection. People around the country could put themselves forward as being able to foster a family. What would Mr. Tyndall think of that idea?
