A Donegal Deputy has described the co-ordination of services for those seeking protection in Ireland as shambolic.
In the Dáil last evening, Deputy Padraig McLaughlin recalled the tribulations of Sessiaghoneill National School, which was denied €30,000 in capitation after taking on a significant number of children from refugee families because the deadline had expired.
Deputy MacLochlainn also discussed the ongoing pressures being experienced by those in the tourism industry with the shortage of hotel accommodation.
