It entailed improving an existing halting site, but we are asking about new Traveller-specific accommodation. I understand the problems that may occur when upgrading existing halting sites or Traveller-specific accommodation, but the problem is we are not meeting the targets. In fact, the only targets we set for Traveller accommodation are financial ones. We set targets for builds, voids, acquisitions, leasing, RAS and HAP and each local authority has a local Traveller accommodation programme, but does the Department set a national target?
