Mr. Paul Benson:

The first place it should appear is within Traveller accommodation programmes so they are detailed enough to identify what the local authority will build and where it will build it. We have been doing work with the Office of the Planning Regulator, OPR, and it is working on a paper to consider the link between Traveller accommodation plans and the development plan and how to call out the ambition and analysis of what is currently provided and its adequacy. That work will continue to try to improve that link and get those objectives for provision of the type of accommodation the Senator is talking about explicitly stated in Traveller accommodation plans and development plans. The onus is then on local authorities to comply with the objectives and policies of the development plan. We are at the start of that process with the OPR and local authorities. This has a way to go.
