Under Section 54 of the Planning and Development Act 2000-2012 it is a reserved function of planning authorities to add to or delete from the register of protected structures. Section 55 of the Act lays out required procedures for planning authorities relating to notices, notice periods and consideration of submissions when making such additions and deletions. Under the Act planning authorities are required to notify me, as Minister for Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht, of any proposed additions to or deletions from the register.

The Deputy may refer to the relevant local planning authority for details of how these procedures are applied locally if applicable.
