The Absences protocol seeks to manage absences from short-term accommodation in a way that is fair to all individuals seeking State assistance, including those most recently arrived.
To date, given the high demand for short-term accommodation, it has not been possible to guarantee that vacated accommodation would be held, except where extenuating circumstances may have applied e.g. a hospital stay.
The provisions of the protocol facilitate one short-term absence (7 calendar days) over a 6-month period, but only in exceptional circumstances which are considered on a case by case basis.
At all times, parents/ legal guardians remain responsible for minors in their care, who cannot be left unaccompanied in accommodation under any circumstances.
The Protocol and its provisions will be kept under review.
