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
Table 3.5 contains details on the duration of temporary accommodation placements; however, I am unable to provide a breakdown of the average length of stay for victims of domestic violence.
