Specific Details Clare Draft Traveller Accomodation Programme 2019- 2024

Intended results Clare PPN working with the Traveller's Primary Health Care Project wished to call attention to the need for the Traveller Community to be consulted and efforts made to this end by the local authority in Clare.
