It will be located between Naas and Newbridge

Kfm understands that discussions are being held around setting up an arrival centre for Ukrainian refugees in Newhall, between Naas and Newbridge.

It’s reported that the centre would accommodate up to 950 Ukrainians in cabins, situated in large marquees, similar to what has been installed already in Stradbally.

The exact location is understood to be on a Greenfield site at Flood’s Cross.

Fianna Fail Cllr. Rob Power had this to say on this morning’s ‘Kildare Today’.
