Over the last number of months the Transition Team has been working closely with the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage, the Housing Agency and the County and City Managers Association on developing the new accommodation model. This has included the development of an allocation key which sets out the number of applicants to be accommodated in each Local Authority once the new model of accommodation for International Protection Applicants is fully in place.

The details of the allocation key are under review and will be finalised towards the end of February. Once finalised it is intended to publish the allocation key towards the end of quarter one this year.
