I propose to take Questions Nos. 649 and 650 together.

My Department publishes official homeless reports on a monthly basis.  These reports are based on data provided by housing authorities and produced through the Pathway Accommodation & Support System (PASS).  These reports capture details of individuals utilising State-funded emergency accommodation arrangements that are overseen by housing authorities and include data on a regional and county basis. 

These reports are published on my Department's website and can be accessed using the following link: www.housing.gov.ie/housing/homelessness/other/homelessness-data.
