Defence Forces
Dail Éireann — 2026-05-07
============================================================

Duncan Smith (LAB), Dublin Fingal East

Why has the conciliation and arbitration scheme for the Permanent Defence Force has been without an adjudicator since June last year? This is the only place Defence Forces members can have grievances addressed. This process is being held up because of the lack of an appointment. I would like an update please.
