Direct Provision System Dail Éireann — 2021-10-07 ============================================================ Dara Calleary (FF), Mayo I am asking this question on behalf of Deputy Niamh Smyth. I know the Minister is committed to ending the system of direct provision. I know that from our talks on the programme for Government. I would like to get a sense of where we are in that regard. Do we have a timeline for it? I fear that the system might conspire to dilute the Minister's ambition. Will the Minister assure me that is not going to happen? --- Source: Houses of the Oireachtas.
