Defence Forces Regulation CS4 and its accompanying Administrative Instructions provide for the organisation and numerical establishment of Defence Forces Units. There are no appointments for Paramedics or Advanced Paramedics within the CS4 establishment of the Central Medical Unit (CMU).
There is work ongoing to define the future requirements for such positions and to regularise these posts within the CS4 establishment.
