My Department publishes quarterly progress reports which are based on quarterly performance reports submitted by the nine regional lead authorities responsible for the administration of homeless services at local level. These quarterly performance reports include details of the numbers of individuals prevented from entering emergency accommodation, and those exiting emergency accommodation into tenancies and the duration of stay in emergency accommodation. The quarterly progress report summarises the data submitted to the Department.

The most recent published data is in respect of Q1 2023 and the report is available on my Department’s website at the following link: . Furthermore, at this link you will find the collated regional quarterly performance reports that include details of the number of new family/new single presentations and repeat family/repeat single presentations on a daily basis.
