On 17 November, the Department of Foreign Affairs advised my Department that a number of citizens arriving from Gaza were in need of housing support.
The provision of social housing supports, as well as emergency accommodation for homeless persons, rests with individual housing authorities. Details in relation to accommodation requirements were provided to the County and City Management Association (CCMA) and to the Dublin Region Homeless Executive (DRHE).
The DRHE has informed my Department that accommodation has been provided to those households who required it.
My Department does not maintain the requested information in respect of the State bodies under its aegis. These bodies may be contacted directly by e-mail by members of the Oireachtas, as set out in the Table below.
