The balance of Collins Barracks, Dublin 7 will be handed over to the Office of Public Works and the National Museum as soon as is practicable. A former married quarters at Arbour Hill, Dublin, is currently in the process of sale. There are no plans at present to dispose of any further properties in Dublin 7.

I visited the site of the proposed school at Lumville, Curragh, County Kildare on 21 December 1999. I met with both political representatives and representatives of the board of management of Gaelscoil Chill Dara. I am advised that the Department of Education and Science proposes to consider the possibility of re-locating Gaelscoil Chill Dara to an alternative site in the former Army Barracks in Kildare town.
