Written answers

Minister of State at the Department of Finance (Mr. Parlon)

Plans are being drawn up for a dedicated promotional campaign for Maynooth Castle, including advertising in the local press. With regard to possible future development at Maynooth Castle, the position remains as set out in my reply to Parliamentary Question No. 185 of 17 November 2004.
