Select Committee on Housing, Planning and Local Government: Historic and Archaeological Heritage Bill 2023: Committee Stage (Resumed) (4 Jul 2023)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: Regarding amendment No. 89, I can see where a difficulty arises if the National Museum, the Heritage Council and An Taisce has to consult on amendments to 180,000 national monuments. I will consider the matter again, but I believe that those three bodies should be consulted in the event of a deletion. How many of the 180,000 are expected to be deleted from the list? I imagine it would be...

That is just to clarify what I said earlier. ...

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: I understand that but it is such an important area. We are dependent on landowners to protect these. As was mentioned earlier, as the State cannot protect 180,000 or 200,000 national monuments, we owe those landowners, the holders of the monuments, a debt of gratitude but we also need to ensure there is no doubt in their minds whatever. While the Department or Minister may issue such...

Report on Section 481 - Film Tax Credit: Motion (6 Jul 2023)

Aengus Ó Snodaigh: In 2018, some brave workers came forward and called out a lack of protection for workers in the film industry.
