Question 168: To ask the Minister for Finance his views on removing the tall railings dating from the late twentieth century between the car park at the Kildare Street side of Leinster House and both the National Museum and the National Library complex, and replace them with lower railings so as to vastly improve the rather bleak high security feel to this fine public space in view of the peace dividend of recent years; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [11439/10]

The provision of the railings, that separate the car park on the Kildare Street side of Leinster House from the National Museum and the National Library, is security-related, and is a matter for the Houses of the Oireachtas Commission in the first instance. The Commission has not requested the Office of Public Works to review the matter.
