Can we define homelessness, in Dublin or anywhere else? This is my issue. Previous speakers defined homelessness. There are ten types of homelessness. How do we decide what is and is not homelessness and how to go about dealing with it? That is where the biggest problem is. Homelessness could mean sharing a house with someone. To me that is the biggest issue. It is not just rough sleeping.
