Written answers

Minister for Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht (Deputy Jimmy Deenihan)

I am not aware of any consideration given to such a proposal.

It should be noted that my Department has raised the issue of the protection of the Hume Street buildings with Dublin City Council, as the authority with responsibility for implementing the law in relation to protected structures.
