Mr. Frank D'Arcy:

Regarding allocations, the situation has improved. We have made 95 allocations in Dublin city to Traveller families in the last five years. One of the things we talked about was flexibility. We were able to acquire 11 units in the last three years, funded by the Department, especially for bigger families. We were able to go out and get a four-bedroom or five-bedroom unit. We spent €4.8 million on the acquisition and refurbishment of those 11 units. That was proactive.

On waste management, I take the point made about oversight and monitoring. We have introduced a new system in Dublin city since the start of 2025 and now we are able to monitor all the waste collected. We are driving forward with the bulk waste collection as well, which has assisted us.
