Local authorities accused of 'Traveller prejudice' for failing to spend earmarked cash

Local authorities are being accused of "Traveller prejudice" for failing to spend a total of more than €1.2m that had been earmarked for Traveller accommodation.
Dun Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council, where 10 members of the Travelling community died in a fire in Carrickmines in 2015, drew down less than a third of the funding allocated last year by the Department of Housing.
