Mr. Aidan O'Driscoll:

In the case of the Traveller horses, the projects develop more in urban areas. The issue is that we have funding but we do not operate it on the ground. Local authorities operate it on the ground. The local authority needs to have a project and come to us. We can decide whether to fund it and, within limits, we have funding available, but it is then for the local authority to deliver.
