View answerData on homeless households in emergency accommodation is provided through the Pathway Accommodation & Support System (PASS). Monthly reports from lead housing authorities, which identify the number of people utilising State-funded emergency accommodation on a regional and county basis, are published on my Department's website as soon as they are available. These reports are available on my Department’s website at the following link: http://www.environ.ie/en/DevelopmentHousing/Housing/SpecialNeeds/HomelessPeople/.
