Gypsy/Traveller Accommodation Need Assessment (GTANA) and Travelling Show People Accommodation Need (TSPAN)

Doncaster Council undertakes a periodic assessment of Gypsy and Traveller Accommodation Need (GTAN) and Travelling Show People Accommodation Need (TSPAN) as part of its wider analysis of housing need. An understanding of these accommodation needs are essential to make properly planned provision and avoid the problems associated with ad-hoc or unauthorised provision and to greatly strengthen the ability of the local authority to respond swiftly and positively to inappropriate unauthorised developments and encampments.
