Dublin City Council told me directly it has suspended the tenants in situ scheme, as have other local authorities across. It has been suspended because local authorities do not have the necessary funding allocated. Can the Minister not give an emergency allocation to those local authorities to continue with the tenants in situ scheme, as was the situation last year? That would be an emergency intervention which would prevent hundreds of families with children becoming homeless in the coming months.
