I would be happy to do so. I outlined quite a number of the plans already. We are looking at about 588 beds between what has happened and the following projects, which are at various stages of design development. In Cork there will be 186 beds between Collins Barracks and Haulbowline. Those are on their way at the moment. I have seen the work myself. There will be 48 beds in Kilkenny, 100 beds in Gormanston, 172 in the Defence Forces Training Centre, DFTC, 13 in Cathal Brugha Barracks and 69 in Renmore. If any personnel within the Defence Forces are in difficulties we ask them to contact the personnel support services to see what assistance can be given. I will get the programme for the Deputy.
