Correction. The Monthly Variance Report posted earlier this week had an error. Clare did NOT have an Influx of 280 IPAS applicants in November. It had a smaller increase of 11. Apologies...

Weekly IPAS Occupancy Variance Report. This week, we observed a potential reallocation of applicants between Dublin City Council and Dun Laoghaire. Notable Increases for Donegal, Galway City, Cork County and Waterford. Decreases for Galway County, Westmeath, Cork City and Tipperary. Despite the arrival of 361 new individuals under the International Protection Accommodation Services (IPAS), the total occupancy has increased by only 80. This suggests that some individuals have either left the system or are no longer under the purview of IPAS

The value of these occupancy variance maps is clear, and FF regrets not implementing them earlier. From on, we will issue these maps weekly and monthly. FF has a hunch that the riots, winter conditions, and accommodation shortages may mean a slowdown in numbers ..for now.
