Simon Harris (Wicklow, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

The Deputy's language worries me, not the issue. We will deal with the issues as a Government and collectively in the Oireachtas. Going back to Deputy Kenny's point, the language of division does not offer healthy debate. That is my opinion.

In regard to accommodation for Ukrainian people, it might be useful for the House to know the following. Every day, some 15 Ukrainian people come to Ireland seeking accommodation. Every day in Ireland, approximately 45 Ukrainian people leave State accommodation. There are around 175 fewer Ukrainian people each week in State accommodation. Far from the narrative that the situation is worsening in regard to accommodation for Ukrainian people, it is actually very significantly improving. On the Deputy's specific issues, I will ask the line Ministers to reply.
