Description

It's claimed the physical and mental health of Asylum Seekers in South-East Clare is deteriorating, while living in tents over the cold snap. In a statement to Clare FM, The Department of Integration says it's prioritising the wellbeing of residents in tented accommodation at Knockalisheen Direct Provision Centre in Meelick amid the adverse weather conditions. The International Protection Applicants were provided with extra blankets as temperatures plummeted in recent days and, ahead of Storm Bert's arrival tomorrow, a contingency plan remains in place that will see them moved indoors if necessary. Doras CEO John Lannon says it's a completely unacceptable situation.
