This is a very important issue and we must ensure this sort of heritage is looked after. I suggest, however, that it is not necessarily for this committee to make a statement of that nature because we are supposed to highlight issues of systemic importance, where there are problems with the system not working. I suggest the expertise for this sort of issue lies with the Joint Committee on the Environment, Culture and the Gaeltacht and, therefore, the power of any statement might be greater if it came from it because it deals with such issues on a regular basis. I suggest we send the petition to that committee and ask it to consider making a statement in support of the aims of the Inchicore and Kilmainham Heritage Group.
