1269. To ask the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport if there is a national policy regarding the erection and retention of signage along national and secondary routes for the purposes of advising persons of the locations of heritage, craft and tourist facilities; if his attention has been drawn to plans by local authorities to remove such signage which may very well prove detrimental to organisations in rural regions.

Policy on the provision of tourist and leisure signage on the national primary and secondary road network is a matter for the NRA.  The NRA published their revised 'Policy on the Provision of Tourist & Leisure Signage on National Roads' in 2011 and it is available on the NRA website ().  

In light of the above, I have referred the Deputy's question regarding plans by local authorities to remove such signage to the NRA for a direct response. Please advise my office if you have not received a reply within 10 working days.
