The purpose of the Community Car Initiative (CCI) was to provide a limited transport service to support the accommodation made available under the Offer a Home scheme for Beneficiaries of Temporary Protection, in areas more removed from urban centres, and in places without regular public transport. This initiative was run through Local Development Companies (LDCs). LDCs are already integral to integration and were considered well placed to provide a service that could support this initiative. Below is a list of LDCs that participated in the CCI, before it was wound down:
