In the period from 1997 to date, capital building projects undertaken in the Curragh Camp cost a total of approximately €78 million. A significant number of projects were funded from the barrack re-investment programme which commenced in 1999 to provide the Defence Forces with operational, living and recreational accommodation suitable to the needs of a modern military organisation. The cost of capital projects by year and the major projects costing over €1 million are set out in the following tabular statement, which I propose to circulate with the Official Report.
