Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
Implementing Housing for All: Discussion
Ms Catherine Keenan:
No, I am not going to tell the Deputy that there is something missing. What I will say, though, is that the Deputy is right in that 1,564 people are receiving HAP and are on a transfer list. They are housed, however. Difficulties do exist in this regard. Some of these people have received notices to quit or whatever, but they are housed. Some people are quite happy to be on HAP. This aspect must be considered. The State is paying for them and they are housed.
