Ireland will need at least four more large-scale temporary accommodation facilities for refugees and asylum seekers, the Minister for Integration Roderic O'Gorman has told cabinet colleagues.

The Cabinet sub-committee on Ukraine will meet on Tuesday to discuss increasing difficulties in finding accommodation for those fleeing war in Ukraine and those seeking international protection here.
