1125. To ask the Minister for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth if financial assistance is going to be provided to Irish households who accommodate Ukrainian refugees purely to cover the increase in household costs associated with such a charitable action particularly in view of the increasing cost of living; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Properties were pledged through the Irish Red Cross Portal on a voluntary basis, and the generous response from the public to this appeal is much appreciated. While there are presently no financial supports for people offering pledged accommodation, the matter is being kept under review by Government.
