My Department publishes a detailed monthly report on homelessness, based on data provided by housing authorities. The Report outlines details of individuals utilising State-funded emergency accommodation arrangements that are overseen by housing authorities. The Reports are available on my Department's website at the following link: www.gov.ie/en/collection/80ea8-homelessness-data/ and are also published to the Department of Public Expenditure and Reform's open data portal data.gov.ie/. The most recently published data is in respect of March 2022.

In relation to the question posed regarding the number of individuals in Dublin accessing emergency accommodation who are not on a housing list, my Department does not collect data on social housing entitlements amongst individuals who access emergency accommodation.
