I refer the Deputy to my reply to Parliamentary Question number 150 on the 8th October 2008.

A draft Scheme of a Bill to amend the Heritage Fund Act, 2001 is being considered by my Department. Progress on the legislation will have regard, inter alia, to the availability of funding in 2010 and future years.
