Defence Forces Strength
Dail Éireann — 2020-11-17
============================================================

Éamon Ó Cuív (FF), Galway West

My question is to ask the Minister the establishment number of the Defence Forces, broken down by Army, Naval Service and the Air Corps, and to compare that with the actual number serving. It is important we find that out, and then that the Minister might explain to us why that is the way it is.
