'Real figure is much higher': Almost 11,000 people homeless in latest record monthly total
Focus Ireland warned that all emergency homeless accommodation is full, with a waiting list in some local authorities of vulnerable families who now cannot even get a bed for the night.
The number of people who are homeless has hit another record high, with charities reporting that families and others are now spending longer in emergency accommodation as the housing crisis refuses to ease.
The latest report from the Department of Housing showed there were 10,975 people in emergency accommodation in September, the third consecutive month in which the record was broken.
