Ceist:270 Mr. M. Smith asked the Minister for Defence if current training methods will continue in view of the Price Waterhouse findings that the FCA were poorly trained; and when change in this area will be implemented. [7446/97]
Written Answers - FCA Training.
I am satisfied that the current methods used in the training of members of An Fórsa Cosanta Áitiúil make the best use of the resources available for the training of the Reserve. However, as part of the review of the Defence Forces a special study of the Reserve Defence Force will be undertaken later this year and training will be one of the aspects examined as part of that study.
