Minister Says No Contract To House Refugees In Kill

Local residents says they have not been consulted

The Minister for Integration Roderic O'Gorman says there is no contract to house Ukrainian refugees at the Kill Equestrian Centre.

Local residents says they have not been consulted about plans to use the facility for temporary accommodation and have been protesting

Kildare County Council says that the site is not suitable due to flooding concerns.

And investigations have taken place after a fire broke out in shed in the grounds over the weekend.

Minister O'Gorman says all factors will be taken into account before a contract is agreed.
