Summary
Mr. Molloy linked morale to an alleged lack of officer promotions. The Minister called it a separate matter, invited a formal question, and denied that morale was low; the two exchanged accusations of being out of touch.
The question arose relative to the question about morale. The Minister says that morale is high but how can morale be high when there are no promotions of officers?

(Limerick West): If the Deputy puts down a question I will gladly answer it. There is no lack of morale either among the officers or the men in the Army.
Comment on this
(Limerick West): The Minister is fully in touch, it is the Deputy who is out of touch.
