A competition for the enlistment of instrumentalists in the Defence Forces School of Music is currently underway. The closing date for receipt of applications was 22 April 2012. The age requirement applicable to this competition is that candidates must be not less than 17 years of age and must be under 28 years of age on the date of enlistment. As the age requirement for this competition is of general application it is not possible at this stage to amend the conditions as advertised.
