On 13 September 2018, I launched the new Land Development Agency (LDA) which will act as a new commercial State body to actively manage the strategic development of public land.
This new Agency will lead a new, intensive and vigorous process of looking at strategically placed blocks of particularly brownfield publicly owned development land and unlocking such lands full potential, working with all the key stakeholders.
With regard to the Defence Forces property at Gormanstown Camp, County Meath, this site does not come within the scope of the initial tranche of lands being examined by the LDA.
In addition, given the Gormanstown lands greenfield nature and significant infrastructure requirements, my Department is not aware of proposals to put such lands forward for consideration by the LDA.
