THE Minister for Arts Culture and the Gaeltacht, Mr Higgins, has been criticised for his "lack of openness" in relation to his plans to introduce areas of conservation. The Fianna Fail spokeswoman on Arts, Culture and Heritage, Ms Sile de Valera TD, will be moving a motion in private members' time in the Dail tomorrow. The motion states that the Dail, recognising the need for conservation and sustainable farming methods, condemns the Minister for the "lack of openness, accountability and consultation, particularly with the House of the Oireachtas" in this area.
