Special Committee on Covid-19 Response

Congregated Settings: Direct Provision Centres

Ms Oonagh Buckley:

It is a movable feast. We closed one centre over the weekend for the same reason we stopped using it earlier in the season. Currently, we have residents in 84 locations. That number includes 47 direct provision centres - I will have to take the figures out, as they change regularly - and 33 emergency accommodation facilities. We have four self-isolating facilities and we are using five other facilities for density reduction. There are 84 centres in total at present.
