Question 267: To ask the Minister for Defence the reason his Department's annual report for 2008 was only published in November 2009 in view of the fact that the military submissions were complete by April 2009; and if he will make a statement on the matter. [42272/09]

The Department of Defence and Defence Forces Annual Report was published in November 2009. The report covers the many functions and activities of both the civil and military elements of the Department of Defence and the Defence Forces. The report was therefore produced in close co-operation of both the civil and military elements of the Department with editing and re-drafting, as required, throughout the process.
