In relation to this case, I am advised by my officials that an application for exceptional reunification was considered by the Ukrainian Crisis Temporary Accommodation Team (UCTAT), which evaluates applications for exceptional reunification on a case by case basis. A refusal notification was issued accordingly by the UCTAT team.

A further review of this case was considered by my officials in line with the Absence Protocol and concluded with no change in their decision. Their decision is final on these matters.

Beneficiaries of Temporary Protection are entitled to make their own private arrangements for accommodation using supports provided by the Department of Social Protection or by asking their Local Authority or Irish Red Cross for pledged accommodation. Those wishing to avail of pledged accommodation in any given area should contact the Local Authority in that area or the Irish Red Cross pledge process. The Irish Red Cross can be contacted by email at registerofpledges@redcross.ie or by phoning 1800 50 70 70.
