Vol. 198 No. 6

Ceisteanna—Questions. Oral Answers. - Congo Service Medals.

36.

asked the Minister for Defence if he will consider striking second and third class medals for awards to members of the Defence Forces who gave very distinguished services in the Congo.

I assume that the Question relates to An Bonn Mileata Calmachta (The Military Medal for Gallantry). This Medal is in fact awarded in two classes, under current Defence Force Regulations.

I may say that I am at present considering the question of making further provision for decorations for bravery and distinguished service generally.
