In accordance with recommendations arising from an adjudication in 2015 under the Conciliation and Arbitration scheme for members of the Permanent Defence Force, my Department and military management, in consultation with PDFORRA, are currently reviewing the maximum service period of 21 years for enlisted personal up to the rank of corporal.
There are currently no plans to change contract duration terms to six years.
