Paul Kehoe (Wexford, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

A number of people who are in residence in the married quarters are vulnerable and the Department will examine their circumstances on a case-by-case basis. It is fine to live in the married quarters when one is a soldier, but it has been always been the case that once one has retired from the Defence Forces, one vacates those premises. People have been under no illusions over the past number of years of the terms and conditions involved.

The Department pays the property tax in respect of each house occupied by the overholder. Overholders do not have to pay for their bin collections. Bins are collected by the Defence Forces under the general bin collection contract to the Curragh. Some overholders do not even have to pay for their electricity. Deputies here represent struggling people in their own constituencies, yet there are people in the camp who do not have to pay property tax nor pay for their bin collections and electricity.

A number of legal proceedings have been commenced and they will continue.
