Minister of State at the Department of Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht

I understand from Údarás na Gaeltachta that the organisation owns one site of approximately 2.9 acres in An Clochán, Co. Kerry which was purchased in May 1981. The purchase price was £8,200 (approximately €10,412). Údarás has confirmed that there have not been any maintenance costs with regard to the site.
