412. To ask the Taoiseach and Minister for Defence if the Defence Forces are being ordered to wear the new 1916 commemorative medal (details supplied); if this is an unintended mistake; if he will correct this anomaly by ensuring the service medals of 1916 and the War of Independence are inexorably listed to the fore of any official precedent here involving State primary service medals; and if he will make a statement on the matter.

It was not possible to reply to the Deputy in the time available. My Department is making ongoing enquiries into the matter and I will reply directly to the Deputy once a reply comes to hand.
