============================================================

Bernard Durkan (FG), Kildare North

I thank the Taoiseach for his reply. I ask the extent to which consideration was given to ensuring refugees were accommodated in as short a time as possible and that we do not have a situation whereby refugees have to sleep in the open or in the unsafe, insecure, unfortunate and difficult conditions that have been outlined in recent days and whether it is likely to be possible to make sufficient provision in the shorter space of time and, at the same time, filter the number of incoming refugees to measure them against the availability of accommodation because, otherwise, there is a grave danger that the whole situation may fall into disrepute. I ask that special effort be made to ensure the availability of that accommodation.
