I am arranging for the report on the excavations in Mayne Bog, Co. Westmeath, that were licensed by my Department in 2015 to be made available to the Deputy by the Department's National Monuments Service. However, I am advised that the complete report of the results of the 2018 assessment by the landowners of the archaeological potential of the area of bog that is subject to peat extraction is not yet available. It will be provided to the Deputy once it has been received and reviewed by the National Monuments Service.
