The provision of a consent order which would be required for such a proposal, as set out in the National Monuments Acts 1930-2014, is a matter for the consideration of the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage in the first instance. There have been no substantive engagements sought of my Department from the Commissioners of Public Works or the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage on this matter.
