162. To ask the Minister for Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht if she and the Government, in liaison with the four Dublin local authorities, have given any consideration to the naming or renaming of a major thoroughfare in Dublin city and region after the first signatory of the 1916 Proclamation and prime mover in the Easter Rising, Thomas J. Clarke. [16883/15]

The Ireland 2016 Centenary Programme places a special focus on the Seven Signatories of the Proclamation. A number of specific projects and activities in the programme relate to the Seven Signatories and individual signatories will also be remembered in a wide variety of ways. In regard to the naming or renaming of any street, this is, under law, a matter for the relevant local authority.
