Frances Fitzgerald

Ceist:

162 Ms F. Fitzgerald asked the Minister for Health the number of homeless children placed in bed and breakfast accommodation, adult hostels, hospitals, Garda stations and other forms of accommodation; and the gender, age and length of stay in each form of accommodation in each health board region during the year 1993.

Minister for Health (Mr. Howlin)

The detailed information requested by the Deputy is not readily available in my Department. I have asked the health boards to collate the information and I shall forward it to the Deputy as soon as possible.
