Ms Oonagh Buckley:
Once the Swords hotel was no longer accommodating other residents we started to use it again to accommodate people, particularly new arrivals. However, towards the end of last week we became aware that the particular hotel was starting its economic business again and was taking in paying customers. In the circumstances we felt the same risk issues arose so we have ceased our use of that hotel and have moved all of the residents to other facilities in Dublin.
