My Department has been engaged on an ongoing programme of barrack consolidation since 1998 and the Defence property portfolio is kept under ongoing review by my Department.

The properties outlined below are those that are surplus to military requirements and are currently vacant. The Department continues to be available to discuss, with any interested group, any proposals they may have for the possible purchase and future development of these sites for the benefit of the local community.
