Parties must fulfil objectives to end homelessness

DEBATE will begin shortly on the new programme for government.

In this regard, we would like to draw your readers’ attention to the expressed commitment by all political parties to the MakeRoom campaign, which aims to end homelessness by 2010.

We are committed to ensuring no one will have to sleep rough because of lack of appropriate services, that no one will have to live in emergency accommodation for longer than is an emergency and that no one will become homeless due to a lack of services or inadequate housing provision.
