With regard to the final point made by the Minister, those involved in the day-to-day running of the Army should have dealt with it ages ago. It is very simple and it does not take a huge report to do it. As somebody who did guard duty in Kippure, with members of the Permanent Defence Force, as well as in Carrickmines and Roundwood, I agree with the Minister that change is needed, but all of the so-called value for money independent reviews are internal. Was Fianna Fáil in government in Cyprus, Greece, Spain and Portugal?
