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
Ms Rosemary Collier:
My understanding is that under the provisions in this proposed Bill, the Minister can decide to list it as a monument that is deserving of special protection. It would be a matter for the Minister and his officials to clarify how that can be achieved and whether it can be achieved through this proposed legislation. My understanding is that it can be achieved, but it is a matter for the Minister, and the process in that regard is also a matter for the Minister.
