Mr. John O'Connor:

I will add a point about different types of accommodation. Cork City Council got a lot of criticism in the recent report but it completed one development in recent years at Hollyhill. It is probably due to the commitment of council staff involved in the design of that Traveller-specific accommodation that it is a combination of houses, bays and day accommodation. It gives many options for Traveller accommodation and flexibility for the future. Where there are individuals in local authorities, or others, who are committed to designing good quality accommodation, it works. We had a very negative example from Cork city but Hollyhill is a very positive one. The individuals in the council who worked on that were committed to designing a high-quality development.
