I have one or two brief questions. It leads on from Senator Kyne's question. I apologise if this was touched upon. When there is, with any organisation, a smaller-than-desired number of people who will very likely be spread unevenly around the country, if you look at a map of the State, are there very particular and obvious gaps with regard to RDF capacity?

The Commission on the Defence Forces talks about Air Corps Reserve Defence Force personnel. I had a quick look but I am not able to get a number for those at the minute. Are there many or any people in Air Corps who are RDF? On the Naval Service RDF, I suppose that involves a very particular set of skills or duties. Will there be specific actions required in those two areas to try and bring more people into the RDF for those two services?
