Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government

Implementing Housing for All: Discussion (Resumed)

Ms Ann Doherty:

For us, I do not believe that it has had any impact because we sourced new accommodation. By that I do not mean new build but accommodation that was not in stock. For example, a hostel that was used to house visitors to the city became vacant so it did displace a tourism market. Two other properties were vacated by religious orders so they were not in use in the city. Up to now I can very comfortably say no but the situation may change as time goes on if more displaced people arrive from the Ukraine.
