Vol. 451 No. 8

Written Answers. - County Clare Abbey.

Síle de Valera

Ceist:

108 Miss de Valera asked the Minister for Arts, Culture and the Gaeltacht the plans, if any, the Office of Public Works has for the preservation of Quin Abbey in County Clare. [7247/95]

I understand that Quin Abbey is in a reasonable state of preservation. There are proposals to provide visitor facilities there but a number of issues remain to be resolved before they can be implemented. These issues relate in the main to difficulties in acquiring the land necessary to facilitate the proposed project and the need to close the national monument to burials.
