Travellers to unveil plan to resolve housing row

Travellers living in one of Ireland’s worst halting sites have drafted their own plans to resolve what’s been branded a "humanitarian crisis".

Residents of the Spring Lane site on Cork’s northside will launch their ‘Spring Lane Manifesto’ at the Glen Community Resource Centre this Wednesday.

It will chart in stark detail the appalling conditions they face living on the overcrowded site, and will outline several proposed solutions they say would address the accommodation crisis quickly.
