Ukraine War
Dail Éireann — 2023-10-19
============================================================

Cathal Crowe (FF), Clare

I wish to ask the Minister about the Ukrainian war. We are quickly approaching its second anniversary. I think it was around 20 March 2022 that it began, so we are coming close to the two-year mark. The response from Ireland has been immense. In the main, we have done a good job as a country but our response has had its struggles. One of the fallouts from our response has been a major withdrawal of accommodation across the country. Our response has been tied into providing accommodation. I would like to know if there is a medium- and long-term response to that, specifically for those businesses locked out of and not benefiting from the lucrative contracts. Is there any support that could be given to them?
