Joint Oireachtas Committee On Key Issues Affecting The Traveller Community
Traveller Accommodation: Discussion (Resumed)
Mr. Paul Benson:
No, I am not suggesting that. Some Travellers still practise nomadism and there are particular areas, such as Knock or Ballinasloe, in which, and times of the year at which, large numbers of Travellers have a migratory pattern, if one likes, for various reasons. Attempts have been made by the local authorities in those areas to provide something. The will is there but not everyone is supportive.
