It is expected that construction of the new Department of Defence headquarters at Newbridge, Co. Kildare will be completed at the end of July or early August. Completion of the commissioning of the many building systems, followed by occupation of the building by the Department, should be effected soon thereafter. No date has been set as yet for the official opening of the building. That will be a matter for the Department of Defence.
