Minister of State at the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage

The special area of conservation site referred to in the Deputy’s Question is not in the ownership of the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage. Accordingly, the issue of signage at the site would be a matter for the local authority concerned.
