Dáil Éireann Debate, Tuesday - 23 November 2010
367 Deputy Tom Hayes asked the Minister for Defence if he will consider allowing Garda authorised shooting clubs the use of military rifle ranges on payment of a rental fee and provision of adequate insurance cover which would indemnify him for the clubs’ use of these facilities as happens in the UK and Northern Ireland. [43578/10]
View answerThe use of any Military facility by a private organisation or club is conditional on a fee being paid, adequate insurance cover being in place, affiliation to the national governing body of the particular activity and non-interference with the Military use of the facility. An application for use of a particular facility should be sent to the Property Management Branch of the Department who will consider the request in conjunction with the Military authorities.
