Pavee Point recommended the establishment of a statutory Traveller agency with powers to approve and enforce local authority five-year Traveller accommodation plans. Do the five-year Traveller accommodation plans done by local authorities meet the real needs of the community? When one tries to enforce a plan that is flawed to start with, one is not going to get to where one wants. Do we need a national audit rather than just the sum of individual local authorities?
