The expectation is that it will be open by the end of June or early July.

The Dóchas centre was mentioned.

There is a rolling programme of improvements in the Dóchas centre. Some of the houses have been upgraded and refurbished, which has been welcomed by the women who live there, and there is an ongoing plan to continue to develop and improve the accommodation and its quality.
