Ms Rosaleen Molloy:

I will add that in terms of number of families in homelessness, we included in our submission the number of families who were homeless in Dublin city and region. At the time, in 2018, it was 100 families. That has now fallen back to 80 families. From the reports Focus Ireland has been publishing, there has been a fall back in family homelessness. It is a positive that within the Traveller community, family homelessness has also fallen back in the Dublin area. One reason given, when I was speaking to somebody in the Traveller accommodation area, was that the case study approach was being taken in 2019 with families who were from a Traveller background to try to work with them on their accommodation needs.
