While I cannot comment on individual cases, I can confirm to the Deputy that officials in my Department are aware of this case and it is receiving attention.

During their period in IPAS accommodation, people may have to move to alternative centres for a variety of reasons, including family needs, renovations, regulatory or compliance issues at their accommodation, and pressures on capacity within the system overall.

In order to protect the privacy of people resident in International Protection Accommodation Service (IPAS) accommodation, the Department does not provide detailed information about relocations between IPAS centres.

if any IPAS resident has a concern in relation to any element of their accommodation, they can contact IPAS directly via a dedicated helpdesk at ipasinbox@justice.ie.
