Sandra McLellan (Cork East, Sinn Fein)

Like the issue of the Moore Street monument, this matter arises again and again. If one examines the questions tabled to the Minister for Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht since he took office, it is obvious that this subject is being raised frequently. It is really in the hearts of the people. It is in my heart also. What provision has been made in the run-in to 2016 for the creation of a national monument incorporating the GPO, Moore Street, Moore Lane and O'Rahilly Parade? Such a project would be very important in the context of the centenary celebrations in 2016.
