Travellers in €2m housing row hit back

TRAVELLER leaders yesterday hit back at the strong condemnation by Minister of State Tim O’Malley of Traveller families in Limerick who have boycotted a new accommodation centre as it does not have stabling for horses.

The €2 million centre at Castletroy has been lying vacant for the past four months due to a stand-off between seven families and Limerick County Council over the lack of stables.
