The information sought by the Deputy cannot be provided in a single table or in a form that is readable in the response to the question. The information is provided in a series of tables in the attached file. 

The tables are structured, as follows:

Table 1: Number of persons by centre, age and gender.

Table 2: Duration of Stay in months since entering accommodation

Table 3: Number of Persons by Centre and Nationality

Table 4: Number of Persons by centre and family composition

The information is drawn from a dynamic database that changes on a daily basis - the tables represent the position at the end of March 2018.

The phrase "leave to remain" in the question is being interpreted as covering persons granted any one of Refugee Status, Subsidiary Protection or Humanitarian Leave to Remain. The information sought by the Deputy cannot be provided in a single table and instead is provided in a series of 4 tables in the attached file.

The tables are structured, as follows:

Table 1: Number of persons by with leave to remain by centre, age and gender.

Table 2: Duration of Stay in Centre in Months since leave to remain was Granted

Table 3: The Number of Persons with with leave to remain by Centre and Nationality

Table 4: Number of Persons with leave to remain by by centre and family composition

The information is drawn from a dynamic database that changes on a daily basis - the tables represent the position at the end of March 2018. The information also includes data in relation to approximately 200 persons who have been relocated to Ireland under the relocation or resettlement programme and have been accommodated in Mosney. Unfortunately it is not possible to separate this data from the data in relation to the other persons in Mosney (approximately 600).
