Joint Oireachtas Committee On Key Issues Affecting The Traveller Community
Traveller Health: Discussion (Resumed)
Ms Breda O'Donoghue:
Sometimes it is not about the funding but what can be done with the funding. We are very limited in our project. We work with KPIs. We are very conscious that our funding has to go in certain directions all the time. We no longer feel that is working. We need to be able to branch out into different areas. What we are doing with the primary healthcare programme is great and the care-support workers are brilliant. However, the problem is with what they are limited in doing. That is the challenge for us at the moment.
