The terms and conditions whereby Privates and Corporals may not serve beyond 21 years were adjudicated on in December 2015. The adjudicator made specific findings on the matter. Officials in my Department are currently analysing the issues arising in relation to the implementation of these findings and will recommend to me any necessary legislative changes in respect of the terms of service for Enlisted Personnel.
