The Defence Forces Built Infrastructural Programme 2020-2025 was published in January 2020. This Programme, which is a 5 year plan, will provide a blueprint for investment in the Defence Forces built infrastructure over a multi annual timeframe. The Deputy will appreciate that for commercially sensitive reasons I am not in a position to disclose estimated costs at this point in time.
As part of this programme, I can confirm that the procurement process for the upgrade of the existing Range 3 in the Defence Forces Training Centre at the Curragh Camp is underway. It is expected that the works will commence this year and will be completed within a 12 month timeframe.
