Clare County Council is being urged to begin record the number of people who died in homelessness in the county. At present, Dublin City Council is the only local authority that keeps a record of deaths of homeless people. The latest Government figures show 98 adults were residing in emergency accommodation in Clare in the last week of November. West Clare Aontú representative June Dillon says knowing the level of mortality of the county's homeless population would help the local authority to determine which services are needed.
