Integration Minister Roderic O’Gorman has given reassurances that no more Ukrainian refugees will be put up in tents during the current freezing weather.
He said that the last remaining of 50 refugees that had been spending the past few winter nights in tents in a direct provision centre in Knockalisheen, Co Clare, had secured proper shelter and were moved out of tents.
Mr O’Gorman was speaking after a weekend of public criticism when it emerged that dozens of the refugees fleeing the terrible war had to endure living in military tents outdoors.
