Joe Costello (Dublin Central, Labour)

In the context of the two national monuments designated last year — the Minister, Deputy Roche, designated 14 to 17 Moore Street and the former Taoiseach the GPO — and the considerable amount of physical work as well as planning required to prepare those sites for the commemoration of the centenary in 2016, will the Taoiseach indicate the steps taken to date or the plans in place? Only eight years remain until the commemoration. Has the Government any plans to properly develop those two national monuments in the context of 2016?
