Due to a number of well-documented factors, the Department of Integration has not been in a position to offer IPAS accommodation to every International Protection Applicant since 04 December 2023.
As at 28 March 2024, 1,529 adult males were awaiting an offer of accommodation.
IPAS releases statistics in relation to IP Applicants not offered accommodation. These figures are updated on Tuesday and Friday on gov.ie (see the link below)
