Homeless Persons Data
Dail Éireann — 2020-11-24
============================================================

Eoin Ó Broin (SF), Dublin Mid-West

The Minister will be aware that I have raised this issue previously and I fully accept the seriousness with which he has been responding to it but since we last raised it, we have seen a number of very significant tragic deaths of people who were either rough sleeping or engaging the homeless services in Dublin, Galway and Cork. I have heard some very concerning figures, particularly from Galway and Cork, in the past number of months. Can the Minister update the House on his discussions with the homeless service providers and what additional actions he intends to take to address this very tragic set of circumstances?
