It is a fair comment. The reason the accommodation starting point is used a lot is that people see, with the situation like that on Mount Street, that there is a great and demonstrable difficulty in providing accommodation. The numbers of people seeking international protection are increasing significantly. I would say there will be 20,000 applicants this year. Does the Taoiseach agree with that?
