Deputy,

My Department has not been offered the property in question as a potential location for the accommodation of international protection applicants (IPAs) or Beneficiaries of Temporary Protection (BOTPs) and, therefore, it has not been considered as such.

A detailed assessment must take place before any property can be deemed suitable as accommodation for IPAs/BOTPs.
