Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 13 February 2024
532. Deputy Alan Kelly asked the Minister for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth the number of Ukrainian refugees housed and international protection applicants, respectively, housed in each local election area as of 6 February 2024. [6273/24]
View answerThe information is not available in the manner requested by the Deputy with respect to Beneficiaries of Temporary Protection (BOTPs) or in relation to International Protection applicants. However, data at local authority for BOTPs and at county level for IP applicants is presented in the two tables below.
I can advise that my Department releases statistics in relation to BOTPs by local authority regularly (www.gov.ie/en/publication/9ac7b-accommodation-of-beneficiaries-of-temporary-protection-botps/). My Department also releases statistics in relation to international protection (IP) applicants and accommodation (www.gov.ie/en/publication/07027-ipas-statistics/).
