Mr. Martin Ryan:

A stark reminder again is that the statistic is 79% of post-2013 entrants do not see a viable career option due to the pension. This is the problem of today, yes, but it is very much the problem of the future. As we wait another five or ten years to deal with this, and as Lieutenant Colonel King rightly alluded to, it is primarily across all fast accruals and full-time services. We cannot say we were not warned on this. Let us not be surprised in years to come when it becomes an epidemic and we can keep no one in these front-line services. The committee has been told here today and it has been told in the past.
