Vol. 512 No. 4
31 Mr. L. Burke asked the Minister for Defence the plans, if any, he has to purchase modern security surveillance equipment for use as a security aid at various military barracks; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [26314/99]
The Defence Forces Review Implementation Plan which was approved by Government in March 1996 recommended, as a means of improving the efficiency of security provided at military installations, that maximum use should be made of electronic security and surveillance devices. Electronic security and surveillance equipment has been successfully used for some years in various military barracks and high security military installations. It is intended to continue this policy. Modern security surveillance equipment, where appropriate, is specified as part of each building project and is supplied as part of the relevant building contract.
