Paul Kehoe (Wexford, Fine Gael)

As is the case with all other Departments, a review of expenditure is taking place in the Department of Defence. This matter has not come before the Cabinet. When a decision is made in respect of this or any other issue relating to the Defence Forces, I have no doubt the Deputy will be made aware of it and that information on why certain choices were made will be provided. I assure him that, as matters stand, a decision has not been made in respect of the closure of any barracks in the country.
