Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 28 November 2023
498. Deputy Eoin Ó Broin asked the Minister for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth further to Parliamentary Question Nos. 464, 465, 467, 468 and 469 of 14 November 2023, the expected total maximum occupancy of the 37 properties referenced once they are fully operational; and by what date they are expected to become operational. [52060/23]
View answerThe maximum occupancy for the 37 properties is potentially up to 200 people. As the properties will be used as supported accommodation for vulnerable applicants the exact occupancy numbers will be determined by vulnerability need.
The properties will be delivered on a phased basis over the next number of months. It is estimated that the majority of the properties will be occupied by the end of quarter one 2024. The occupancy of the properties will be subject to issues that may arise as a result of any upgrade works.
