Liz O'Donnell
Ceist:47 Ms O'Donnell asked the Minister for Justice if she will clarify the statement made by her in reply to a parliamentary question from Deputy Liz O'Donnell of 15 June 1994, that the number of homeless boys in particular was declining, in view of the fact that a recent Eastern Health Board survey of youth homelessness revealed that 427 homeless children were encountered in 1993 in the Eastern Health Board area alone with similar evidence of an increase in youth homelessness in other health board areas; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
