Question:259 Mr. Durkan asked the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government if he will restore Donadea Castle and buildings at Donadea Forest Park, County Kildare; if he will negotiate with its owners with a view to same. [16824/04]
View answerThe castle and its associated buildings are an integral part of the forest park owned by Coillte Teoranta. Development proposals are a matter, in the first instance, for the organisation.
The castle is a recorded national monument and enjoys legal protection under the National Monuments (Amendment) Act 1994. My Department must be notified of any proposals to carry out works.
