National Monuments (Amendment) Bill 2004: Committee Stage.
1:00 pm
James Bannon (Fine Gael)
It should be examined under one scheme or another because it costs money to maintain such buildings and farmers have to rear their families and may not be able to afford to do so. Some of these sites are of national, regional and local importance and should be protected. This is all about protecting what we have and passing it on in a reasonable state of repair to the next generation.
