Should the issue of the 21-year contract be resolved in such a manner as to allow a significant number of able bodied personnel to continue to serve beyond 21 years? Would such an outcome have a significant impact on the figures before us, given that persons who have accrued 21 years service would be at a considerably higher level on the payscale than persons joining the Defence Forces?
