The Reception and Integration Agency (RIA) is responsible for the accommodation of asylum seekers in accordance with the Government policy of direct provision and dispersal.
The person referred to in the question has only recently applied for a transfer, along with his family, from his current accommodation and that request is under consideration at the RIA. A formal response will issue directly to the family in the coming days.
The Deputy should be aware that queries in relation to the status of individual immigration cases, including accommodation status at the RIA, may be made directly to INIS by Email using the Oireachtas Mail facility which has been specifically established for this purpose. The service enables up-to-date information on such cases to be obtained without the need to seek this information through the more administratively expensive Parliamentary Questions process.
