James Browne

Ceist:

66. Deputy James Browne asked the Minister for Arts, Heritage, Regional, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs her plans to instigate an artist's trail in County Wexford as a pilot scheme, similar to the Wild Atlantic Way and Ireland’s Ancient East but which instead promotes artistic heritage (details supplied); and if she will make a statement on the matter.

The initiatives outlined in the question are the responsibility of my colleague the Minister for Transport, Tourism and Sport. The issue of a county Wexford artistic trail could be a matter which the county council may wish to consider in terms of the local response to the Creative Ireland programme.
