Answer
The Department for Communities does not determine the number of people who may have left their homes because of paramilitary intimidation.
The Housing Executive will hold information for homeless presenters to it and acceptances due to intimidation, with a sub-category of ‘Intimidation – Paramilitary’. This is an operational matter for the Housing Executive.
You should, therefore, direct your question to the Housing Executive at its dedicated MLA response team, which can be contacted at public.affairsunit@nihe.gov.uk.
