Temporary housing refers to short-term accommodations provided for those without permanent residence, in this case to support immigrants and refugees as they settle in a new country. Proponents argue that increasing temporary housing offers humane and stable support for newcomers, easing their transition and helping communities manage arrivals. Opponents argue that expanding temporary housing may strain public resources, affect local housing markets, and that other solutions may be more sustainable.

They should create legislation against vulture funds to end the empty home problem and use those instead.
@9ZWQMMC2wks2W
The government should increase temporary housing to accommodate their own people first such as the homeless or low income families
@9ZWFMTL 2wks2W
We need to find a way to balance the housing of immigrants and refugees with our own housing crisis. One shouldn’t be put over the other. Both Irish citizens and immigrants should have the right to affordable and suitable living conditions.
@9ZWBBFX2wks2W
Yes as long as there is enough affordable housing for those who are already living in the country first
@9ZW57PD2wks2W
Shelter should be provided but people who have been living in Ireland for a long period of time or Irish citizens should have priority.
@9ZW4CM62wks2W
I think Ireland is a ready providing a lot of housing however I do believe Ireland d should make the system more efficient and provide refugees with sufficient notice if they decide they don’t want to house them in that area anymore and provide them with other options
@9ZW37592wks2W
NO! When we are full we are full. Increase the housing for the generations of young Irish adult who are stuck still in their childhood bunk beds with their aging parents with no options of affordable housing for them to carve a life for themselves. Why is the government more fixated on accommodating immigrants and refugees over our own children in their 20s?
@9ZW322S2wks2W
Refugees should be provided with shelter for a pre determined amount of time. This issue would be mute if there were houses for residents
