275 Mr. G. Reynolds asked the Minister for Arts, Heritage Gaeltacht and the Islands if she will carry out an archaeological survey on Manorhamilton Castle, County Leitrim. [17998/01]
Manorhamilton Castle is a recorded monument in private ownership and thus is afforded protection under the National Monuments Acts. My Department is not in a position to provide financial assistance towards this type of work in respect of monuments in private ownership as all available resources are required for the preservation and protection of those monuments which are in the care of the State.
