The number of homeless people increased in June to 10,492 – a rise of 667 compared to March this year - according to the latest figures from the Department of Housing

The number of homeless families also rose to 1,385 in June - an increase of 147 compared to the end of the first quarter of the year.

"The Government, local authorities and those in our NGO sectors are making every effort to reduce homelessness. Key to this is the delivery of new social housing and boosting overall supply. "This will secure and expand more tenancies and prevent new entries to homelessness," Mr O'Brien added.
