- 50% of the housing waiting list in the Dublin Local Authorities area is made up of non-nationals (incl EU). Half of that figure is former asylum seekers. So no economic benefits there.
Well at the risk of providing free entertainment to Firefly!
I got that from a Dail question asked last year but cannot find it online. I'll keep trying.Have you a source for that ?
MORE than half of the applicants for council homes in north Dublin are from abroad, new figures show.
It is the first time that there have been more foreign than Irish people on Fingal's social housing list.
"For the first time, more than half those on the waiting list for social housing in Fingal County Council are non-Irish nationals. A third are from outside the EU," Fine Gael's Kieran Dennison said.
The figures were supplied in response to questions from Cllr Dennison.
Lone parents on the list have risen by 28pc to 3,480, he said. This category of applicant now accounts for 43pc of people waiting for council homes.
The number on Fingal's housing list is 8,144, up 22pc on the 6,691 on the list a year ago.

It's crazy and costly that AS have to wait so long for the results of their application.
It's also crazy that they can appeal over and over again.
90% of asylum-seekers are bogus.

So you are for total open borders.
How long do you think the social welfare state would survive?
