495. To ask the Minister for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth if it is correct that contracts for accommodation for Ukrainians in private residences are currently under review, and as such, no new contracts for accommodation are being negotiated until the review is complete; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

I can advise the Deputy that my Department does not procure private residential accommodation, with the exception of premises over 15 bedrooms. This is to ensure that the private rental market is not negatively impacted by the need to provide emergency accommodation for Beneficiaries of Temporary Protection. This policy is unchanged.
