‹ Order of Business Protection of national monuments
Summary
Frank Feighan raises vandalism and theft of heritage, citing a stolen church window, and asks about the monuments Bill. The Taoiseach expects it next year but will ask whether it can be expedited.
There is enormous concern that our national monuments and heritage are being vandalised and, in some cases, stolen. There was an incident recently in Lake Garadice in County Leitrim, where a 600 year old church window was stolen. Thankfully, it has been found again, due to the vigilance of the local people. In that context, when will the monuments Bill be published?
