Only 25% of respondents considered transient sites were needed, and only 10% had themselves or had a family member use them. In general, concerns were expressed that they would be poorly managed and become used as overflow for standard halting sites. Some considered that there should be a basic network of such sites to allow those who wished to travel easily.
As outlined in the following Policy Statement while it is recognised that there is a requirement to provide a network of transient sites for Travellers the TAP Survey indicates limited demand for this proposal, in the short-term amongst the Cork City Traveller population.
