Ms Mary Hurley:

We want to see a reduction of the number of families in hotels. If that means an increase in hubs, it is better accommodation. We have a group of numbers and the objective is to reduce the reliance on hotels and have more people in the suitable hub accommodation. The overall objective is not to have people in emergency accommodation at all. If someone has to be in emergency accommodation, the best short-term temporary solution is a hub.

I will pass on to Mr. Kelly to respond to the question on the Garda stations.
