To date more than 10,000 of those fleeing the conflict in Ukraine who have arrived in Ireland have been referred to the International Protection Accommodations Service (IPAS) for accommodation.
A dedicated team in my Department is focused on the provision of accommodation to refugees fleeing Ukraine. This team is in contact with all relevant Departments and Agencies on a regular basis in order to ensure that refugees are provided with accommodation and to facilitate access to the supports that they require.
