Mr. Brendan Gleeson:

Some of those sites are places where the Department has offices. We have a long list of sites around the country, most of which are small holdings with forestry or agricultural land. We have several research farms. Costs are associated with the operation of places where we are actively engaged. One example is the Tops farm in Donegal where we are actively involved in managing a research facility. There is a farm near Backweston which is managed for the purposes of agricultural sites. We have a list of these sites. Many of them are very small sites in rural areas without any significant activity. No significant costs are associated with their management.

We have a list of these sites and many are sites in rural areas where there is not significant activity or costs associated with their management.
