Ms Carol Baxter:

It will certainly be interesting to get the information. We will take it back. As the Senator may be aware, the late Joe Horan, when he was the manager of South Dublin County Council, had a project in which Traveller men worked in the parks programme and that was very successful. The suggestion is a great idea and we can bring it back.

Obviously the Department of housing is very alert to the complexities of needs. To mention a related aspect, the caravan loan scheme has been fully allocated for 2025, reflecting again the need to support Traveller-specific accommodation choices.
