Mr. Dermot Mahon:

It is hugely disproportionate in that Travellers might account for roughly 1% of the population or 2% in the city and possibly 5% of our total housing waiting list. Our allocation to Traveller families last year was up at about 10%. We afford a significant priority to Traveller allocations. They can be combined with certain specific properties where there is a disability requirement. Where we can provide support for Traveller families we are doing so. It is significantly disproportionate to their actual population across the city. It raises some challenges, but we deal with those as best we can.
