Minister for Environment, Climate and Communications Eamon Ryan has said that people living in asylum seeker accommodation who have received full refugee status in Ireland should pay rent.
Speaking at Castletymon Library on Monday, the Minister said that around 4,000 asylum seekers had received full refugee status in Ireland.
He said: “They’re not in Direct Provision, but they’re remaining in the same accommodation, and in those circumstances, should they be charged? I believe they should.
