Minister for Housing Darragh O’Brien said his department has gone “above and beyond” in its efforts to house Ukrainian refugees and asylum seekers.

Approximately 480 asylum seekers have been left without accommodation due to a severe lack of housing supply in Ireland, resulting in some people sleeping in tents.
