I understand that Safe Home Programme Ltd, a charitable organisation supported by the Department of Foreign Affairs Emigrant Support Programme, provides an information and advisory service for anyone considering a move back to the State, including information on their housing options. To apply for housing under the service, applicant s must meet certain criteria including an inability to provide accommodation from their own resources.
