VFM Review of Reserve Defence Force: Discussion with Minister for Defence and RDFRA

11:15 am

Mr. Martin Cooney:

No comprehensive review of the Reserve Defence Force has ever been completed to identify the range of civilian skills. One of the reasons for us coming to this meeting and requesting such a review take place is that it is something that would be fundamental to help identify the skill sets, qualifications and experience. By doing that, we identify the assets. We do a stock take of what we have, we identify what we have, and then we decide how we can use it. That is one of the key steps we would say would have to happen in such a review.
