Last week it was reported that the State might have to close the Citywest refugee processing facility temporarily to new entrants in the coming months amid a potentially significant shortfall in available accommodation.
Previously the Irish Refugee Council had raised issues about facilities at the centre and its suitability for accommodating women and children.
