Official homeless reports are published on my Department's website and can be accessed using the following link: .
These reports are based on data provided by housing authorities and produced through the Pathway Accommodation & Support System (PASS), the single integrated national data information system on State-funded emergency accommodation arrangements overseen by housing authorities. These reports are published on a monthly basis capturing details of individuals utilising State-funded emergency accommodation arrangements that are overseen by housing authorities.
Given that the new family-focused supported temporary accommodation facilities referred to in the Question are overseen emergency accommodation facilities, the details of households accommodated in such arrangements will be reflected in the monthly reports published by my Department.
