Question 384: To ask the Minister for Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht if the architectural section in his Department was consulted regarding the South Dublin County Council Part 8 proposal for Taylor's Lane in view of the fact that it involves a protected structure; if his AHPF for planning authorities has been set aside for just this proposal or for all proposals concerning protected structures; the reason he did not wait for the Ombudsman to conclude her investigation before granting financial approval to the Part 8 proposal; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

Under Article 82(3)(c) of the Planning and Develoment Regulations 2001, where it appears to a local authority that a proposed development under Part 8 of the same Regulations might detract from the appearance of a protected structure that authority must give notice to the Minister for Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht of the proposed development. South Dublin County Council has confirmed to my Department that it decided not to give such notice to the Minister as regards the Part 8 proposed development for a site adjacent to a protected structure at Taylor's Lane.
