Dáil Éireann Debate, Thursday - 2 March 2023
118. Deputy Fergus O'Dowd asked the Minister for Public Expenditure, National Development Plan Delivery and Reform if he will seek an update on the long-awaited council plans to provide a new community-based plaza at the historic St. Laurence's Gate in Drogheda, which is owned by the OPW; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [10441/23]
Amharc ar fhreagraI am aware that Louth County Council's County Development Plan includes an ambition to upgrade the public realm in the vicinity of St Laurence’s Gate in Drogheda. No further details or scheme have been made available to my Office. The local authority are best placed to update the Deputy on its own plans in this respect and the Office of Public Works will be happy to engage with the local authority in due course if such plans advance and insofar as proposals relate to the National Monument.
