International Protection
Seanad Éireann — 2023-11-14
============================================================

Aidan Davitt (FF), Industrial and Commercial Panel

I submitted this Commencement Matter because I was curious about this issue when we were going through budgets, expenditure details and so forth. I thank the Cathaoirleach for selecting this matter today, which I have submitted on a number of occasions previously. I am seeking information in relation to a number of departmental expenditure queries I received. As outlined by the Cathaoirleach, this query relates to the amount of money being spent on the international protection accommodation service, IPAS, on Ukrainian accommodation, on different subsistence payments and on related services. I am sure the Minister of State will have a very detailed response to my query, which I look forward to hearing.
