The standard response I get back to a parliamentary question is that Tusla is committed to ensuring all children and young people who can no longer live with their parents or guardians at a particular time are provided with a safe alternative care placing. I presume that includes foster care. Can the pressure on foster carers lead to the practice of placing children in hotel-like accommodation?
