Rose Conway-Walsh (SF), Mayo

The Taoiseach continues to quote figures and defend Fine Gael's record on housing, but Fine Gael's record on housing in Mayo is clear. We went from one person homeless in 2014 to 87 people homeless today and that does not nearly tell the picture of all those who do not have a home or who are in completely unsuitable accommodation. That is the record in Mayo.
People are waiting months in Mayo to even access emergency accommodation. We asked the Taoiseach the question, in April last, where do people go. Today, again, I want to ask the Taoiseach where the families of children with disabilities go when they have nowhere to live and where women and men living in abuse go when they also have nowhere to live, not even emergency accommodation. Could the Taoiseach please answer me that?
