I have two brief questions. In regard to the expenditure necessitated, could the Minister say whether any money was spent on the installation of telephone lines, communication systems, into the centres where the Army personnel are now located? My understanding is that there was expenditure by the Department in this area. That is perhaps something that the Minister overlooked in his reply.

(Limerick West): The necessary telephone lines and all the necessary radio equipment had to be provided. As I have already stated, any excess expenditure will be recouped in due course.

Has the Minister a figure for this cost?

(Limerick West): I have not got that information.

Could the Minister advise us, because this is of primary concern to me as a member of Dublin Corporation, how he envisages recouping money from Dublin Corporation which on his own figures given today is rapidly approaching £250,000? It will be far more before the dispute is settled.

That is a separate matter, Deputy.

(Limerick West): I do not have the specific information with regard to the costs of telecommunication equipment. As I have already indicated to the Deputy, the extra cost will be recouped from the corporation.

Could the Minister let me have the information on that?
