Most important, the fact that a structure is a prescribed monument does not inhibit the possibility of that structure also becoming a registered monument, and a registered monument that is not a prescribed monument does not suffer any reduction in legal protection. Amendment No. 15 seeks to delete section 29(3)(b), which provides that the Minister may include in his or her prescription of a class of relevant works, works which comprise "an established recurrent activity before the monuments concerned became monuments to which general protection applies." This is a regressive and wide provision which gives carte blanche power to a Minister to classify a category of works as relevant works if they were previously recurrent.
