Pleased to commence the series of cross Departmental bi-lateral meetings on The National Action Plan Against Racism with @DeptRCD today.
Each Dept has specific actions under the plan & these meetings will examine how we progress & deliver on these actions.
After a minutes silence to remenber Ronnie Fay, Traveller poet Helen Hutchinson reads her poem Not So Strange at launch of National Traveller Health Action Plan #TravellerHealth
This is only the start says @DonnellyStephen who pledges ongoing support and to build back up Traveller Healthcare Projects as part of National Traveller Health Action Plan #TravellerHealth
Looking forward to a day of engagement at the #SIF2022. As Minister of State with responsibility for the Roadmap for Social Inclusion, the Social Inclusion Forum is a hugely important event because what is discussed today informs policies as we look to #budget2023
Traveller Primary healthcare workers have also been at the front of the pandemic working on the ground ensuring a COVID healthcare response for and with Travellers across the country. Do we qualify for the bonus? @LeoVaradkar@MichealMartinTD what do you think? @PaveePoint

@Ryanair if government are advising of non-essential travel until at least August- can we get vouchers for our flights booked in June?Or is change of flight the only way to go? it’s going to cost me over €500 with change fees and difference of flights! Is there an alternative?
