Does anybody know when the fixed term promotions for Lt.-Capt. will be signed off by the Dept? The Dept. seem to be dragging their heels on these promotions.

RDFRA say that it is only a matter of time and they will be back dated to May. I know of a few officers waiting on the promotion. They were of the opinion that they would have it for summer camps/cources.

The Dail debates 28th March 2007 Question 264 gives an answer -

First the cmdt posts then the vacant captains post will be filleed

It also lists the Officer appointments by Brigade and unit by rank- Army Reserve 37 Cmdt, 50 Captains and 19 Lts posts vacant Naval Service 1 Lt-Cmdr and 2 Lts posts a grand total of 109 posts against a total establishment of 739.

Well worth a look at the Dail report

The Dept is dragging it's heels because it'll be creating a lot of unnecessary Captains.
