Dáil Éireann Debate, Wednesday - 6 July 2016
201. Deputy Bríd Smith asked the Minister for Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht the provisions she has made to protect Sceilig Mhichíl, Contae Chiarraí, from damage during the filming there; and if she will make a statement on the matter. [15604/16]
Amharc ar fhreagraI am not aware of any current plans to conduct filming at this location.
Previous filming activity in 2014 and in 2015 was subject to the statutory and other requirements prescribed my Department’s National Monuments and National Parks and Wildlife Services to protect both built and natural heritage.
A detailed report was subsequently submitted to UNESCO by the Department which concluded that there had been no adverse impact on either the archaeology or wildlife of Sceilg Mhichíl.
