Ms Mary Hayes:

It is operated by the DRHE across the four Dublin local authorities. It tries to source and work with landlords. One thing in Ms Stapleton's report was the number of people who are moving from HAP into social housing tenancies over recent years. One thing that place finders tries to do is to keep that tenancy available within the homeless HAP scheme and available to the next person who may require it. Some of its work is with existing landlords and some of it is trying to source new properties.
