Mr. Joe Doyle:
We have an oversight committee co-chaired by the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage and the Department of Health. As part of that, targets are set for the Housing Agency to take up tenancies across the country. These are agreed with the local authority areas. The HSE, in partnership with the local authority areas, develops plans to service and support people in the Housing First tenancies programme around case management and access to health services.
