The Department of Housing released the homelessness figures for June yesterday afternoon.
It found that there were 8,835 adults living in emergency accommodation (up from 8,742 in May).
There were also 3,765 children classed as homeless, up 66 from last month Some 1,804 families were living in emergency accommodation in June.
Dublin had the highest proportion of people living in emergency accommodation with 6,424. This represented 73 per cent of the total number of people in emergency accommodation.
The homelessness figures do not account for people who are living on the streets or "couch surfing".
