On foot of receipt of the correspondence referred to by the Deputy, my Department reviewed the matter further and confirmed, by correspondence dated 1 February 2016, the basis upon which the moneys recouped to the Defence Forces were made. In addition, the military authorities advised that no assurances where given that the form of undertaking did not apply to Cadets or that the requirement to repay pay and allowance in the event of a discharge from the Defence Forces as a cadet would not apply. I am advised that receipt of this communication was acknowledged by the person concerned.
