28 Ms Keogh asked the Minister for Equality and Law Reform if he will appoint a person within his Department to monitor progress on the implementation of the recommendations of the task force on the travelling community; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [6643/97]

29 Mr. Clohessy asked the Minister for Equality and Law Reform the discussions, if any, he has had with the Department of Education on the recommendations of the task force on the travelling community; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [6647/97]

98 Mr. Flood asked the Minister for Equality and Law Reform the proposals, if any, he has to co-ordinate the provision of services to travellers within the various public sector institutions that provide services of an essential nature to the travelling community; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [6849/97]

I propose to take Questions Nos. 28, 29 and 98 together.

As I have said in reply to previous Dáil Questions, most recently on 19 February, I continue to maintain an active interest in the process of implementing the recommendations in the report of the task force on the travelling community but members of the Government are answerable for those aspects of the report which are in their respective areas of responsibility.
