Homeless deaths and numbers
Senator Flynn asks for national homeless figures, including deaths in homeless services and on the streets, to be provided to a Dublin councillor.
Last week, Inner City Helping Homeless, ICHH, brought the Don’t Forget Me campaign to the gates of Leinster House to highlight the 56 people who died in homeless services in Dublin this year. Dublin city councillor Anthony Flynn has asked me to raise with the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage, Deputy Darragh O'Brien, the homeless numbers nationally, including how many people have died in our homeless services and on our streets in 2020. I would very much appreciate if this information could be sought and provided to councillor Anthony Flynn who has been unable to access it.
