I thank Deputy Ó Snodaigh. Deputy O'Callaghan made very a very valid case. How do we determine those historic battlefield sites that are relevant to another state? There are more amendments to the Bill relating to the transboundary convention which could deal with some of the queries the Deputy has on the site of the Battle of Aughrim and others. Under the battlefields project, we have detailed data on creating 100 battlefield sites. This database could be drawn on for the register which could also be of use.
