My Department met with the Northern Ireland Housing Executive on 3 November 2021 to explore the feasibility of an all island approach to the provision of a network of Transient Sites. While the shared membership between the National Traveller Accommodation Consultative Committee and the Northern Ireland Housing Executive will assist close cooperation to facilitate continuing exploration, as a next step, my Department is liaising with The Housing Agency in relation to the timely initiation of a research project on the provision of transient sites.
