The number of Beneficiaries of Temporary Protection (BOTP) and that of International Protection Applicants (IPA) by local electoral areas is set out in the table below. The data for BOTPs is not usually collated in this manner and data for 16 April 2024 has been compiled in this format. This data refers to accommodation supported or provided by this Department.

There is no obligation on a beneficiary of temporary protection or an applicant for international protection to seek accommodation from the State. The CSO publishes regular updates in their series "Arrivals from Ukraine" which provides a range of maps and datasets based on anonymised data from a number of Government Departments and State bodies and includes information on the location of BOTPS (not just those in DCEDIY supported accommodation) (www.cso.ie/en/statistics/population/arrivalsfromukraineinireland/ )
