Domestic Violence
Dail Éireann — 2023-11-09
============================================================

Paul McAuliffe (FF), Dublin North-West

Will the Minister give consideration to those in a domestic abuse situation who often through a housing assistant payment, HAP, or other form of temporary housing find refuge away from the family home and were previously on a local authority waiting list in their area? Could they be allowed to transfer to a local authority waiting list in another area without losing the time they have built up? These are unique circumstances that give some room for consideration of the matter.
