Joint Oireachtas Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government
General Scheme of the Monuments and Archaeological Heritage Bill: Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage
Dr. Mark Clinton:
I will give a brief starter, although Dr. Johnson would be able to answer on much of what the Senator raised. As things stand, although I believe the terminology is about to be altered, to qualify as a national monument there are five alternative criteria, including archaeological, architectural and historical. As such, the definition was quite good, but as to getting into the specifics, I will ask Dr. Johnson to come in.
