Question:105 Mr. Stanton asked the Minister for Defence the reason substantive vacancies for captains remain unfilled where qualified personnel are available to fill them; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [23250/97]
I propose to take Questions Nos. 104 and 105 together.
As the information sought by the Deputy is not readily available in Defence Forces Headquarters in the format requested by him, it has not been possible to compile it in the time available. As soon as the information is compiled I will forward it to the Deputy.
