Since news broke that King Thomond Hotel in Lisdoonvarna will be accommodating asylum seekers, there has been an on-going debate in the region and on Clare FM.
Morning Focus has heard a variety of opinions on the matter as the town prepares, amid significant local opposition, to welcome asylum seekers from next Monday (12th March) at the King Thomond Hotel.
The debate has now extended to the nature of the direct provision system itself, after repeated calls for it to be scrapped or replaced.
