Pavee Point is calling on the Taoiseach to ensure all halting sites around the country are safe.

It follows the devastating Carrickmines fire in which ten people - including an infant - lost their lives.

The blaze has led to a campaign calling for a national fire safety assessment of all traveller accommodation.

Co-Director of Pavee Point Martin Collins says immediate action is required to prevent another tragedy:

Details of funerals in Counties Wicklow and Wexford were announced yesterday morning.

The funeral for Willie Lynch and Tara Gilbert and their children Jodie and Kelsey, as well as Willie's brother Jimmy will take place on Tuesday.

Requiem mass will be celebrated at the Church of the Most Holy Redeemer in Bray at midday.

Funeral arrangements have not yet been finalised for Thomas and Sylvia Connors and their children Jim, Christy and baby Mary. The family is due to be laid to rest later in the week in Co. Wexford.
