‹ Ceisteanna — Questions. Oral Answers. - Defence Forces' Personnel. Apprentice pay and technical recruitment
Summary
Bell asked whether reduced apprentice pay would make it harder to recruit for Air Corps and Army technical training; the Minister said he was unaware of a pay reduction, while Connaughton said apprentice pay had been halved.
Would the Minister agree, because of the substantial reduction in the level of pay for apprentices, particularly in the craft and technical sectors, that it will now become virtually impossible to attract personnel for training in the Air Corps and the craft and technical sectors of the Army?
Comment on this
I am sorry. I have called the next question, Question No. 13 in the name of Deputy Molloy.
