Really pleased to see anti-Traveller discrimination like this called out. Cases like this are all too commonplace. WRC rightly connecting this type of racism with the systemic discrimination & segregation of Travellers in Eire. Well done to @flacireland @tejpucc and the family!

👏👏👏At last! Anyone who has read the damning report of @OCO_ireland Ombudsman for Children ‘No end in site’ will know that this news is long overdue. The refurbishment of the Spring Lane halting site will make a major difference to the lives of Traveller children and families.
The @CorkKerryRTAWG welcomes today's positive #TravellerAccommodation news on the redevelopment planned for Spring Lane in Cork City.
Well done to the @DeptHousingIRL @corkcitycouncil & all involved for their commitment to inclusivity and progress.
