The Government decided on 1 July 2003 that lands at Gormanston, County Meath, would be among the State lands released for inclusion in the Sustaining Progress affordable housing initiative. The modalities for the transfer of lands at Gormanston to the relevant local authority are under consideration and my Department is in ongoing communication with the Department of the Environment, Heritage and Local Government in this regard.

There has been no capital expenditure on Clancy Barracks, Dublin, in the past five years. On 15 July 1998, the Government approved a programme of evacuation and sale of six barracks, including Clancy, considered surplus to military requirements. The military presence in Clancy Barracks ended in 2001. The barracks was sold to Florence Properties Limited for €25.4 million in 2004.
