County Galway Traveller Interagency Group

The purpose of the Group is to coordinate and improve the delivery of services to Travellers at County level. It is a sub group of the Galway County Development Board.

It reports to two Government Departments:

Traveller Policy Unit of the Department of Justice and Equality
The Local Government Policy Section of the Department of the Environment, Community & Local Government

The current Chairperson of the Group is David Collins from Western Travellers and Intercultural Development. Other membership comes from statutory & community organisations and Traveller representation. The Group is facilitated by the Social Inclusion Unit of Galway County Council.

The Group meets on average 4 times a year and its main focus is to implement and monitor its Traveller Interagency Strategy for County Galway.
