Committee on Key Issues affecting the Traveller Community

Implementation of National Traveller and Roma Inclusion Strategy II and Action Plan 2024-2026: Department of Children, Disability and Equality

2:00 am

Ms Carol Baxter:

Each Department secures funding for the actions under its remit. They do this as part of the annual Estimates process. That changes every year. The funding I have mentioned is specifically for Traveller-focused units. It does not include, for example, the Equal Start funding or the Tusla funding. Each area secures its own funding.
