Following a re-organisation of the Reserve Defence Force Lahinch Camp closed in March 2013. The property was surplus to my Department’s requirements and in accordance with normal procedure was offered for sale to other Government Departments and Public Bodies. Discussions took place with Clare County Council and local community groups in relation to the property. However, in the absence of any viable proposal being received the property was sold by public auction on 9 April 2014.
