Jimmy Deenihan (Kerry North, Fine Gael)

The Minister mentioned cost a few times. What is the saving factor when it is factored in that the four barracks due to be vacated will have a huge cost in terms of security, heating and maintenance? If this closure of barracks is all about cost, what saving will result? Is that factored in to the budget? Does the Minister know the exact saving he expects to make from the closures? Can he tell us the saving that is expected?
