The issue of the certificates of service has not yet been commenced. Priority is being given to the issue of the emergency service medals and this work is still in progress. The certificates will be issued as soon as possible, but at this stage, it is not possible to give a likely date for the commencement or completion of the work.
The issue of the certificates to the members of the L.S.F. is a matter for the Minister for Justice.
