Amharc ar fhreagraThe report in question is the responsibility of the Office of Public Works (OPW), as managers of the particular World Heritage site referred to.
I understand from OPW that the full record of the conservation works undertaken over a number of years will be published in accordance with UNESCO requirements.
The compilation of the report, which will form a substantial series of volumes, has been prioritised by OPW and has been under way for some time. I am advised that it will be completed as soon as possible.
