Minister tells locals 'no additional' asylum seekers will be housed at Clare hotel in next four weeks

Joe O’Brien met with a delegation of locals who have been protesting outside Magowna House in Inch, Co Clare this evening.

Ministers met with Garda management this evening to discuss how protests have been policed and migrants can be protected.

One Green Party TD says there has been a 'growing' tolerating of violence and intimidation by gardaí, and that management must explain its policing strategy.

Three new accommodation centres for asylum seekers are set to open in Dublin, as the Government scrambles to house international protection applicants sleeping rough.
