Question:351 Mr. Sargent asked the Minister for Arts, Heritage, Gaeltacht and the Islands whether her attention has been drawn to the recent very serious degradation of the seashore environment at Banna Strand, County Kerry; whether, in view of the sensitivity of the ecosystem there and the historical significance of the site, her Department has put steps in train to identify and press charges against the perpetrators; the measures, if any, she will be bringing forward to ward off the possibility of a recurrence; and if she will make a statement on the matter.
