I thank Senator Fitzpatrick. Deputy Duffy probably wants to come back in on that as well but I want to get in ahead of the Deputy.

The "Know Your 5K" involves walking routes around towns and villages that display buildings of architectural importance or buildings, the previous occupants of which may have been historical figures or in which events may have taken place in them. I attended one of the Heritage Council meetings in Kilkenny many years ago where somebody was developing this kind of heritage walking trail app. I do not know whether it was developed further. Do we have a standardised plaque system in this country? I see some plaques being put up that have an essay written on them and it is too much information. The plaque should be subtle, enough to attract attention and just enough to entice you to find out more about that building or the event that took place in it. Do we have a standardised heritage trail or a marking system similar to that in the UK?
