Vol. 501 No. 1

Written Answers. - Army Barracks.

Martin Brady

Question:

88 Mr. M. Brady asked the Minister for Defence when it is planned to close Clancy Barracks; and when personnel, both PDF and civilians, currently serving in the barracks will be briefed regarding re-deployment. [5459/99]

In July last I announced the details of the barracks to be closed in the first phase of barrack rationalisation. At that time, while including Clancy Barracks, I indicated that it was not in the group to be closed in 1998.

The military authorities have been asked to prepare a detailed plan for the future of the units currently stationed in Clancy Barracks. Once this plan is available I will ensure that personnel, both military and civilian, serving in Clancy Barracks will be fully briefed.

It is not expected that the closure of Clancy Barracks will be completed before the middle of next year.
