      Meanwhile Local Property Tax raised €671 million (that goes to local Govt). So basically whatever each household paid in LPT, double that and that’s what Govt. paid out on asylum housing 😬

    2. If we’re putting money into a sovereign wealth fund, we can afford it.

      But we should be building infrastructure for state asylum facilities as much as possible, the current model of giving money to private hosts should only be a temporary measure. Buying Citywest was a positive development.

      But something tells me that most of the people complaining about money going into private hands wouldn’t be happy with that either 🙃

    3. How much was siphoned off and pocketed. We need in depth reports for every single spend the government does.

      The lack of open information while spending OUR money is pathetic. Get them out

    4. More public money going into private hands.

      Delighted for all the govt cronies getting fat from providing sub standard accommodation to desperate people,

      That’s a ludacris amount of tax payer money to be sending to TDs like the Healy Raes in Kerry.

    6. That money could instead pay for new hospital wards with around 1,000 intensive care beds or 3,000 general care beds across the country. The cost of new wards averages at around 400k per bed or 1.2m per bed for ICU. And that’s just 1 year.

      Instead of that we get to pay it all to private landlords and receive little to no benefit to the state.

    7. How many houses or dedicated accomodation for asylum seekers could the have built for this money?

      That doesn’t seem an excessive price to help the most desperate people in society. It works out at about €35,000 per each of the 33,000 aslyum seekers, which sounds right to cover someone’s living costs for a year.
