Catherine Martin (GP), Dublin Rathdown

As I said earlier, the matters relating to the development of Moore Street are for the relevant local authority, Dublin City Council and the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage and work is currently under way with the OPW and the Department of Housing, Local Government and Heritage in relation to the conservation of the national monument at Nos. 14 to 17 Moore Street. The responsibilities of the Minister for Housing, Local Government and Heritage in this matter relate to the maintenance and presentation of the national monument of Nos. 14 to 17 Moore Street.
As Minister for arts and culture, I am supportive of investment in arts infrastructure based on the intrinsic value of our arts and investing in our cultural infrastructure based on the fundamental importance of protecting and presenting our cultural heritage. That is why in Dublin, for example, the Government is investing in a major programme of capital investment in our national cultural institutions, including the Abbey Theatre.
