Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6Is Paddy Wallace allowed to make his opinion public or will Tricky Dicky Roche keep it hush hush until after the elections?
I believe Dr wallace is officially silenced for the 2 weeks that Roche has to consider the advice. But now that its out in the public eye Roche might have to make a statement. This should also release Dr Wallace from his vow of silence.
Great news! But my understanding is that today was just an informal meeting, and that the two week statutory consultation period has not yet begun. That would commence when a formal application is made in writing to the Director. Any way of confirming?
this just goes to prove Oil is crap.
That's also my understanding of today's meeting. The two week period hasn't started yet (not that it's of any great importance in the greater scheme of things). Will the National Museum refuse to partake in the issuing of excavation licences though? Hardly likely.
I'd love to know how the new Monuments Act will impact on their monitoring of excavations in the country. Bertie seems determined to take the NMI out of the loop. It's now up to the individual archaeologists within the institution to get their act together. And while Bertie holds the purse strings, there's not likely to be much new blood in Kildare St., or at least a few heads willing to peep over the parapet. He doesn't like our type you see, we're holding things up for his friends (especially those developing the inner suburbs of Dublin).
At the end of the day though, the protests are belated. The statutary period has long passed (not that opposing views would be taken into account or anything) and the NRA point to this effect is a valid one.
It looks like Woodstown has 'survived' and your neck of the woods taraskryne will soon be overrun by viz-vested diggers and worse.
Well, I recommend that they all stay away from the Tara Na Riogh pub anyway. The cider was flat in '92 and I hear it hasn't got much better since.
Just watch who stands to profit when the valley becomes another well-lit, light industrial park, on the ugly edges of suburbia. Just as the new roundabout in Carrickmines was put there in the private interest, there are those out there who will profit big time from the destruction of this landscape.
because if the developers and landlords take away their advertising - pop goes the times.
Anyone have complete info for here?
