The Ireland Government has decided to policy on Ukrainian refugees, enabling them to temporarily return to Ukraine for Christmas without the risk of losing housing that they were given in Ireland.
Previously, deciding to leave for holidays could have led to the loss of temporary dwelling for refugees, but a new decision is relieving this restriction. This step in politics is seen as an attempt to improve their attitude towards Ukrainians looking for shelter in Ireland.
The Ministry of Children, Equality, Disability, Integration and Youth decided to allow refugees to leave their homes provided by the state from December 22 to January 5, without the need to notify the authorities.
According to the updated rules, refugees should return to Ireland by January 5, otherwise they may lose their home, and their personal belongings will be disposed of in 60 days.
It is important to keep in mind that these changes do not take into account the fact that in Ukraine Christmas is traditionally celebrated on January 7, and festive events continue until Epiphany on January 19.
