It's after the Tanaiste said yesterday that the number of refugees Ireland will welcome will increase dramatically.

Joan Burton says a figure of 5-thousand refugees for Ireland is 'in the mix' and that people would enter Ireland under a refugee programme rather than through the Direct Provision system.
