Limerick West): I propose to take Question Nos. 115 and 116 together.

The total value of military equipment purchased in 1988 for use by the Defence Forces was £32 million approximately. It is estimated that only a small percentage of such equipment was manufactured in this country. Most of the equipment was imported from abroad.
