Does Mr. O'Brien think part of the reason the Peter McVerry Trust reached this crisis point is the pressure to provide emergency accommodation and a response to homelessness on a huge scale and that the State has essentially outsourced that to charities? It has been relying on charities fundraising, rather than paying the full cost.
