Traveller-specific projects and developments are focused on group housing schemes and halting sites. This includes meeting traveller-specific housing needs through a range of mechanisms, including the provision of mobiles and caravans; the provision and refurbishment of halting sites and bays within sites; the refurbishment and extension of existing group housing; the return to use of void group housing; and the provision of new group housing. It is assumed that it is the latter to which the Deputy is referring in the Question. In this regard, in 2016 there were 8 units of new group housing provided - 4 in County Kilkenny and 4 in County Tipperary. The latest available data for 2017 indicates that 4 units of new group housing have been provided, in Dun Laoghaire Rathdown.
It should be noted that it is open to Travellers to opt for any form of State-supported accommodation and Traveller accommodation needs are addressed to a significant extent through mechanisms other than Traveller-specific projects, such as through general social housing or through the private rental sector, with supports such as the Housing Assistance Payment.
