As the Deputy will be aware the Taoiseach Micheál Martin T.D. has recently announced a reallocation of responsibilities between a number of Government Departments including my own.

As soon as the necessary orders to give effect to these changes are in place, the heritage functions of this Department, which includes the National Parks and Wildlife Service, will transfer to the Minister for Housing, Planning and Local Government.
