But the real solution is a massive increase in the number of homes the council builds, he says. Allen says homelessness looks set to increase for the rest of 2022. The real solution is, of course, more housing, he says. The numbers succeeding in renting properties through the standard HAP subsidy in Dublin have been falling for a while. “Because in Dublin there is rent control,” he says. This can be justified if they are homeless, because that is such a damaging experience, he says. Homeless HAP applications are fast-tracked, so people avoid the waiting times of around three months associated with applications for the standard HAP payments. “Is that really going to address what seems to be facing tenants in DCC [the Dublin City Council area] where rents have just gone bananas?” he says. Meanwhile, tenants already living in the house often have set requirements about who they are willing to live with, he says. Hundreds of families have also been granted the rental subsidy to prevent them from becoming homeless. “Some aren’t even looking because they know how difficult it is at the moment. But Maguire says he can’t remember the last time somebody moved out and into their own tenancy.

AN asylum seeker caught shoplifting clothes in Dublin had fled her home country because it was not accepted there that she was lesbian, a court heard.

The goods were recovered. She did not have enough clothes and the weekly asylum payment was €38. Ouriachi left Algeria in hope of a better life because she was a member of the LGBTQ+ community and “wasn’t accepted” there, her solicitor Evan Moore said.

Declan Jordan has step down from the leading role as General Secretary of the North East Football League.

"It is with a heavy heart I have informed the officer board of the NEFL last night of my resignation as secretary. "I would like to wish him the best of luck in the future." Both himself and Dee will be forever very close friends.

Small square bales are very much still with us and while rounds bales and large square bales may account for the lion's share of baling that is done.

To keep up with the high speed plunger the pick-up reel has been borrowed from a MF 185 big square baler which turns 37% faster than its predecessor. It is built to work at a high rate and so make the most of windows in the weather that allow the safe baling of crops, be it hay or straw. Small square bales are very much still with us and while rounds bales and large square bales may account for the lion’s share of baling that is done today, there is still a demand for the smaller package, especially so from the equine sector.

“Players had asked for his return”, said O’Malley, “but one of the officials organised against him. He was beaten by 18 votes to 12 for the job, “ said O’Malley. Mick O’Dwyer had that ruthless streak in preparing Kerry for a slew of All-Ireland titles in the seventies. There was great joy when after a lapse of twelve years Mayo, captained by Martin Carney, won the Nestor Cup in 1981. He was skilled and smart, one of the brightest of the sixties squad. He resigned after a year, having become principal of Davitt College. In 1975, at the request of some players, Langan allowed his name go forward again. He won six county senior medals with the club, scoring a total of 4-10 and was captain of the team on two occasions. He was deeply involved in the football affairs of Castlebar Mitchels before moving to Mulranny, cycling all over the county to matches as a teenager. And for the most part respect was returned. It’s not about self-importance; not about the anticipation of a change of style or who will find favour with the new man. ‘Team trainer’ they called him when he took charge of the county’s senior side. He later set up a thriving business in the seaside village and joined the local Burrishoole club.

It was accepted that she has not come to garda attention since 2014. She ordered that Falaye pay a sum of €1,000 to the Peter McVerry trust. Ibrahim was arrested in February 2015 and brought in for questioning where she made certain admissions. Mr Spencer asked the court to accept that Ibrahim had no involvement in the re-direct fraud that led to the money be taken but instead allowed her account to be used, when she should have made more enquiries as to why her account was needed. He accepted that she had entered the plea on the basis that she was reckless in accepting the money into her account. Gda Fitzsimons confirmed that Ibrahim is responsible for the €178,965 which was lodged to a bank account in the name of a fashion boutique she owned in Co Cavan, while Falaye is responsible for €50,000 that was later transferred to his bank account on November 3rd, 2014.
