Senators Wilson, Ó Murchú and others asked for a debate on the Defence Forces and closure of Army barracks. This is a traumatic time for families of Defence Forces personnel in the areas in question. I agree that the current uncertainty is adding to their concerns and clarity is required on the issue of closures. While I will seek clarification from the Minister for Defence, I do not propose to amend the Order of Business to deal with the issue today. In any case, I do not believe the Minister is available.
