Written Answers. - Defence Forces Recruitment.

Declan Bree

Question:

335 Mr. Bree asked the Minister for Defence the number of applicants with County Sligo addresses who applied for enlistment in the Permanent Defence Forces in the recruitment campaigns in each of the years 1988, 1990 and 1994; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [22738/96]

The number of applicants for enlistment with County Sligo addresses under the 1988, 1990 and 1994 recruitment campaigns is not available because the application forms of unsuccessful applicants are not, as a matter of practice, retained by the military authorities.

However, the number of successful applicants who had County Sligo addresses on enlistment arising from the recruitment campaigns in question was 13 made up as follows: 1988, 5; 1990, 7; 1994, 1.
