Does Mr. Justice Mahon believe the redress of wrongs system is an effective process? Does it need modification or reform? PDFORRA, which represents enlisted personnel, has urged the commission to bring forward recommendations to speed up the Defence Forces internal mechanism for the so-called redress of wrongs. It wants cases to be sent immediately to the Ombudsman for the Defence Forces. Some of those involved in the Women of Honour have also expressed dissatisfaction with the redress of wrongs system. What are the views of the ombudsman on that?
