Reception Centre
24 families were admitted to the Department's reception
centre during the year. This is approximately equal to the
average of the last three years. The reception centre provides
accommodation for six families in self-contained flats in two
converted houses. The reception and re-housing schemes administered
jointly between the Health and Welfare and Housing
Departments, deals only with families with children who have
no other accommodation.
