Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Local Government and Heritage

Peter McVerry Trust: Discussion

2:00 am

Ms Rosemarie Tobin:

I do not think I can say when that can happen. The numbers we have at the moment mean that, to meet the need, the local authorities have to rely on private emergency accommodation. I hope the changes we are making with the local authorities and NGOs will put them in a better position to expand their services. They have not been in that position for the past couple of years.
