Ivor Callely (Fianna Fail)

I have raised the issue of homelessness. Today I note the report of a freeze by the HSE of funding to the agencies dealing with homelessness. I have asked the Leader to arrange that the HSE, the local authorities and the agencies be given an opportunity to come to the House so that we can discuss the issue of homelessness and the mechanisms that are in place to address the issue. It is not just a matter of money but rather a matter of commitment.
