Adjournment Matters. - Traveller Accommodation.

 

Since the adoption of the programme, the Department has provided a total of €9.29 million to South Dublin County Council for such schemes. This is in addition to expenditure on the provision of standard local authority accommodation in which Traveller families are being accommodated. The latter represents considerable investment in the provision and refurbishment of Traveller-specific accommodation in south Dublin. The council is in the process of rolling out its comprehensive accommodation programme. While it accepts that it is unlikely that the full programme will be completely rolled out before the end of the five year period, the council proposes to continue to make considerable progress on the complete programme.
