Joint Oireachtas Committee On Key Issues Affecting The Traveller Community

Traveller Mental Health: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. John Meehan:

I will answer the middle question first. As I said in my opening statement, we will work with the committee and accept its interim report. It is very important that it be acknowledged that we are talking and have had an open and frank discussion on the challenges. I have to concur with the Minister of State that there are real challenges when it comes to Travellers' mental health.
