145. Deputy Eoin Ó Broin asked the Taoiseach and Minister for Defence when a person (details supplied) will receive their 1916-2016 commemorative medal as a member of the Defence Forces. [29513/18]
Amharc ar fhreagraI am advised by the military authorities that the individual mentioned in the Deputy's question is on a list of persons yet to receive their medal.
I am also informed that staff of the Naval Service Headquarters (NSHQ) have made efforts to contact all those retired/discharged persons who were due to receive medals. They will endeavour to contact the individual named with a view to arranging the presentation of the 1916 Commemorative medal at the earliest opportunity.
