Answer
The biannual Northern Ireland Homelessness Bulletin April – September 2024, published on 12 December 2024, contains information on a range of areas relating to homelessness and is available at: https://www.communities-ni.gov.uk/publications/northern-ireland-homelessness-bulletin-april-september-2024
The accompanying tables at Section 3 contain details on temporary accommodation placements by banded length of stay and accommodation type; however, I am unable to provide a breakdown in the format you have requested.
