Number of homeless people in State reaches record high of 11,632

Looking at single adults, there were 5,571 in emergency accommodation in December 2022, compared with 5,423 the month before, and with 4,722 in December 2021 – an 18 per cent increase in a year.

“The dramatic increase in single-person homelessness last month shows that the homeless crisis is getting worse. With the eviction ban due to expire at the end of March there is no doubt that homelessness, and in particular homeless families, will increase dramatically in 2023.

I wonder why that's happening?
