The former FCA premises in Loughrea, Co Galway was vacated in March of this year and has been identified as being surplus to military requirements. In accordance with normal procedure for the disposal of State property, my Department invited other Government Departments and Public Bodies to register any interest in this property. As no interest has been expressed, it will be disposed of by public tender or public auction. Preparations are being completed for the disposal of the property in early 2014.
