Under section 10 of the Housing Act 1988, my Department recoups to local authorities 90% of their expenditure for the provision of accommodation and related services for homeless persons. The following table sets out details of this recoupment for organisations providing services for men. Total expenditure over the last three years amounted to €138 million, of which €22.7 million was for services exclusively for men. Men can, of course, access the wider range of mixed gender accommodation and related services provided across all local authority areas.
