My Department is fully committed to supporting the whole of Government humanitarian response to the invasion of Ukraine and is specifically supporting the delivery of accommodation for Beneficiaries of Temporary Protection through 3 strands:
1.Emergency Refurbishment (Ukraine) Project;
2.“Offer a Home” call; and
3. Supporting the Identification of Sites for Rapid Build Homes.
In addition to the work on accommodation delivery my Department also supports the Department of Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth in its advancement of policy in the context of the White Paper on International Protection and the Irish Refugee Protection Programme.
Integration policy is a matter, in the first instance, for the Minister for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth.
