Joint Oireachtas Committee on Justice, Defence and Equality

Recognition of Traveller Ethnicity: Discussion

9:00 am

Ms Maria Joyce:

I totally agree with what Deputy O'Brien has said about Carrickmines and the potential for something similar to happen. Throughout the country, the potential for that in Traveller-specific accommodation is frightening. Only one short year on from that tragedy, things have gotten worse and there has not been a serious knuckling down to address the issues that need to be addressed in terms of Traveller accommodation.
