The OPW, along with the other agencies, has formed a steering group which has been investigating a number of sites for a potential visitor centre. It has been working with the local community and tourism representatives to determine where a site should be placed. Along with its partners, it has engaged international expertise and carried out a scoping report which has been presented to my Department for consideration. A number of sites have been visited and identified. Consideration is being given to existing arrangements for public parking, toilets, reception, café, retail and exhibition. There will be an assessment of the report and a decision will be made in the coming weeks.
