Minister for Heritage, Heather Humphreys is reported to be “deeply disappointed” with the decision of Dublin City councillors to vote against proposals for a 1916 interpretive centre on Moore Street.

Media reports that the State, through Nama funding, is to preserve and restore the 1916 national monument are welcome. Under the ownership of Chartered Land, it has become derelict and endangered.

A committee has recommended that any works on the National Monument site at Moore Street in Dublin be stopped until a more appropriate setting for the buildings is proposed.

Dubliners are being asked to give their input on the future of historic buildings on Moore Street.
