I am informed by the military authorities that on the 30^thof June, 2015, 947 military personnel were employed in Custume Barracks, Athlone. I am further informed that preparations are underway for the induction of 40 army recruits into the b arracks in August 2015.

Custume Barracks is and will continue to be an important operational military barracks. There are no plans to change this.
