1058. Deputy Eoin Ó Broin asked the Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government the number of households which were recorded on the PASS system as in own door accommodation in each reference week in the first four months of 2020. [10754/20]
View answerMy Department currently publishes data on a monthly basis on the number of homeless persons accommodated in emergency accommodation funded and overseen by housing authorities. These reports are based on data provided by housing authorities, produced through the Pathway Accommodation & Support System (PASS). The reports are collated on a regional basis and are published on my Department's website.
The monthly homelessness report includes details of individuals, families and the dependants of these families who accessed emergency accommodation during the relevant count week of the month in question. The report also includes information on the accommodation relating to adults in emergency accommodation. The categories included are: Private Emergency Accommodation; Supported Temporary Accommodation; Temporary Emergency Accommodation; and Other. My Department does not hold any other details on any other category of accommodation.
