I thank the Tánaiste. Anybody who has visited Haulbowline in the past 12 months will have seen the massive works that have been undertaken there recently. I recall the base when I was a councillor in the Cobh municipal district, and much of it began with the People's Park, with which Deputy Stanton will be familiar. That was the beginning of many of the works that have happened over recent years.

The investment is undoubted, is well deserved and has been well spent. Will the Tánaiste clarify what is happening with the development of a gym? I think one was mooted for the site and the former mess was to be converted into an office or training centre. What is the status of those two projects?
