The Sinn Fein President Gerry Adams has tonight welcomed the decision of Dublin City Council to support the retention of number 16 Moore street as a house of historic value. Mr Adams made his comments after the City Council supported a motion calling for the protection of the house from demolition during redevelopment work that is due to take place in the area. Mr Adams said:

``I would like to welcome the decision of Dublin City Council to support the protection of number 16 Moore street as a site of significant historic value. I would like to commend all of those involved in getting the Council to support this motion, especially my colleague Cllr. Larry O'Toole who this evening led a march from the House on Moore Street to City Hall in advance of the Council meeting.''
