Question:99 Mr. Durkan asked the Minister for Defence the position regarding the disposal of Devoy Barracks, Naas, County Kildare; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [24767/01]
Written Answers. - Army Barracks.
The former Devoy Barracks, Naas, County Kildare, comprises an area of approximately 22 acres. I agreed to cede seven acres free of charge to Naas Urban District Council and to sell one acre to Kildare County Council for £300,000, 380,921, all for local community purposes. I have also agreed to sell the remaining 14 acres or thereabouts, which are zoned for housing, to Naas UDC for £7 million, 8,888,167. The legal formalities to give effect to these agreements are progressing and I expect them to be completed very shortly.
