The Housing Minister has introduced a bill which requires applicants for social housing to be lawfully and habitually resident in Ireland. Residency requirements have long existed in practice but will now be in effect on a statutory basis. Clare Immigrant Support Centre Direct Manager Simon O'Treasaigh says social housing is already unavailable to asylum seekers and those without valid visas . ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/clare-fm-1054983/episodes/clare-immigrant-support-centre-claims-new-social-housing-legislation-doesn-t-exclude-anyone-new/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/clare-fm-1054983/clare-immigrant-support-centre-claims-new-social-housing-legislation-doesn-t-exclude-anyone-new.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
