Cathal Crowe (Clare, Fianna Fail) | Oireachtas source

My contribution is in a very similar vein to Deputy Murnane O'Connor's. In the Clare constituency, and the Minister has been to see it, Clare Abbey, an Augustinian abbey built in the 12th century, possibly by Domnall "The Great" O'Brien, King of Munster, has been roofless since the 1600s and its inner yard is a burial ground. The graves are being desecrated, smashed with bottles and broken in half. The Minister of State very kindly visited the abbey recently along with some of his staff, Deputies and councillors. The Slattery grave there has been desecrated on three occasions. We are looking for some form of CCTV camera. We hope the Minister of State can accede to that.
