The Department has had a contract in place with the D Hotel in Drogheda to provide accommodation for people seeking international protection since 2024. It continues to function as a dispersal centre for the International Protection Accommodation Service (IPAS), with families in residence for a short period of time before transfer to an alternative centre.
The end date of the current contract is during the first quarter of 2026 and a renewal process has been underway over recent weeks. This is not yet concluded.
If there is an update in relation to this property the community engagement team will be in contact with local representatives and stakeholders to keep them informed.
