Does the Minister think that is enough, considering the number of centres around the country? I ask that in the context of the new modular unit development for Ukrainian families in Clonmel. That comprises 82 units constructed at a cost in excess of €40 million. The units were formally occupied in July of this year but there has been no engagement with local residents. I am talking about residents living within 250 m of this development. There has been no engagement with local residents in 14 months. Does the Minister think that is good enough? Is that fair to local residents?
