      Title of both Cathal Brugha Barracks and McKee Barracks is vested in the Minister for Public Expenditure and Reform under various longstanding Leasehold, Freehold and Fee Farm Grant agreements and both are administered by the Minister for Defence. There are no leasing arrangements in place in relation to either facility.

          117. To ask the Taoiseach and Minister for Defence the size of the Baldonnel site in west County Dublin; and if it is possible for the Defence Forces to be relocated there from Cathal Brugha barracks. [8622/18]

          The current size of Casement Aerodrome is 227.21 hectares.

          The Defence property portfolio is kept under review to ensure the most effective use of resources having regard to the roles assigned by Government to the Defence Forces. There are currently no plans to close or amalgamate any permanently occupied military installations including Cathal Brugha Barracks.

            Knowing the GP, first they'll move the army out of the city, then force the don to close because of noise pollution...
            For now, everything hangs on implementation of the CoDF report.
