"Direct Provision needs to be overhauled now"


Direct Provision needs to be overhauled now
By Alison O Reilly
Councillor Francis Timmons has worked with many asylum seekers and wants the system revamped.
He said he accepts we need a direct provision and that the system has improved over years, but testimonies from asylum seekers in Clondalkin alone, where there was a direct provision centre was appalling .
He told us: These are not people who want to come here to take money from the state, they don t come from countries where they have social welfare, they want to work.
They want to have the option of contributing to society and they want to be part of society. ....

Joan McDermott was 16 and fresh out of boarding school when she met her boyfriend Tony, a medical student, in their rural hometown in County Cork, Ireland. Together for about a year, they had sex twice. She fell pregnant.
“I honestly didn’t know that was how you got a baby,” says Joan, now 73 and living in the small coastal town of Cobh in Cork. “When I told my mother I was three months’ pregnant, she said to go upstairs and pack a small bag; I’d be going away. Then she stood in the hallway while I rang my boyfriend. His family ran a well-known local business; he said he was sorry but that he could do nothing for me.” ....

Shock over closure of teen shelter


Shock over closure of teen shelter
By Alison O Reilly
A county councilor who set up a night shelter for teens is in shock at its closure.
Francis Timmons said it doesn t make sense to close Lefroy House on Eden Quay.
The Nightlight service has operated for 20 years.
It houses seven teens and provides services for 17 and 18 years old.
It was announced day it will close and Councillor Timmons told us he can t understand it.
He said: My first reaction was an absolute shock, as well as seven emergency beds, we also have six support flats there which were for people to be able to get support upstairs in the buildings, where they could live for maybe two years before they got their own accommodation . ....
