Ms Ann-Marie O'Reilly:

In Threshold, we are not particularly involved the youth homelessness strategy. We support the Irish Coalition to End Youth Homelessness and contribute but at present we are not involved in any of the actions. The Senator asked for a comment on family homelessness. Unfortunately it was not a huge surprise. We see the increase in notices, the numbers of people who are facing the loss of their homes and the difficulty in firstly keeping the homes they have and finding new homes. Sadly, it is not a big surprise.
