149. To ask the Minister for Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht if her attention has been drawn to the fact that there has been no national heritage plan in place since 2007; the reason this is the case; her views on introducing a new plan; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [5510/15]

Following on from the National Heritage Plan 2002-2007, and over the course of recent years, my Department’s responsibilities for the development of policies for the protection and promotion of our built and natural heritage have been met by various ongoing policy developments, responding to the range of challenges in each of the sectoral areas within my heritage remit.
Whilst my Department has no specific plans at this stage to develop an overall heritage plan updating the National Heritage Plan 2002-2007, the situation will be kept under review in the context of competing priorities and ongoing policy developments.
