271. Deputy Fiona O'Loughlin asked the Taoiseach and Minister for Defence if there are residents of the Curragh camp who are in receipt of a lifetime lease agreement; the number of these agreements in existence; when these agreements were put in place; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [21181/17]
Amharc ar fhreagraThere is one lifetime lease in place. It is in relation to a married quarter property outside the Curragh Camp on Curragh brownlands. The lease was signed 1 November 2010.
Where married quarter properties are located outside barracks they are offered for sale to the occupant and many have been disposed of in this manner. In the case of this particular property, as it is one of only two of its kind in the State and is of historic and architectural interest, it is being retained by the Department.
