464. To ask the Taoiseach and Minister for Defence if his attention has been drawn to the disparity between the male and female areas in the development plans for the training unit in the Curragh Camp; and his views on whether this will impact female recruitment to the Defence Forces. [52572/21]

I assume that the Deputy's question relates to the capital infrastructure development plan at the DFTC, Curragh Camp. All building projects under the Plan are designed to meet current and future operational and training requirements. My officials are not aware of any disparity in relation to infrastructure provision as referred to by the Deputy. If there is a specific incident that the Deputy is aware of and if details of same can be forwarded to my Department, I can arrange to have the matter examined further.
