Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
Interim Report on Homelessness: Discussion
Ms Mary Hayes:
I believe we are getting there. As the supply line increases, our first target will be private emergency accommodation. The NGOs are poised and ready and some of them have already drawn up plans to convert their emergency accommodation into long-term accommodation. They are working hard on that. We hope to be able to reduce our dependence on private emergency accommodation but we can only do that through a steady supply of housing alternatives.
