Vol. 238 No. 4

Ceisteanna—Questions Oral Answers. - NCOs Promotions.

23.

asked the Minister for Defence the reason for the long delays in promoting to existing vacancies NCOs who have passed the necessary tests.

The numbers of NCO posts which it is necessary to have filled in the ranks of corporal and sergeant at any particular time are governed by the current strength of privates in the army. On this basis vacancies do not exist at present in non-commissioned ranks.
