MOTION NO.1 

MOTION: Councillor F. Timmons

That this Area Committee supports the end to the system known as Direct Provision and acknowledges it is however now unlikely to end this during the lifetime of the current Government due to a number of Factors. In the mean time we call on the Government to do everything to make the system as easy as possible and that all refugees are treated equally and given the same opportunities. We again reaffirm our support for an end to the system called Direct Provision and that we commit to write to the Minister for Children, Equility, Disability, Intergation and Youth and the Minister For Justice with the contents of this motion for his response.

REPORT:

If the motion is agreed, letters will issue to the Minister for Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth and the Minister for Justice as outlined in the motion above.
