163. Deputy Catherine Connolly asked the Minister for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth the number of minor international protection applicants who are sharing a room with an adult who is not their parent or guardian; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [52221/22]
View answerDeputy, the International Protection Accommodation Services (IPAS) can confirm that no minor international protection applicant is accommodated in the same room as an adult that is not their parent or guardian.
This is in line with IPAS accommodation and the relevant child safeguarding protocols.
I trust this information clarifies the matter.
