And in a much shorter time frame than recommended.... without implementing any of his recommendations (apart from overseas). -
Is the cut of 500 envisaged as a temporary measure until full recruitment returns or is it here to stay?Comment

The Minister "wants" to keep it above 10,500.
The strength has been chipped away at over a number of years, establishment is 11,500.Comment

Incorrect, the current establishment of the DF is 10,500, with 500 of those being in recruit or 3*star trainingOriginally posted by Truck Driver View PostCRIME SCENE INSTIGATORComment

It recently dropped below 10000 for the PDF(all arms).

It dropped below 10000 last October, and has continued down at approx 1 per day since then. Thats why W. O'D is getting worried.Originally posted by Goldie fish View Post
A lot of long service personnel are getting worried at the possible repercussions for their retirement gratuity and pension, if the cuts in pay are applied to these payments at the end of the year. As the year progresses the number of retirements is likely to rise, leaving a vacumn at the top.
Unfortunately these people are leaving without all the info, hopefully this will be available before the middle of the year and that will be the time for us to make our decisionsLast edited by REX; 5 February 2010, 00:26.CRIME SCENE INSTIGATORComment

So does anyone know if the course is offically cancelled?
Does anyone know if this will have an effect of the Std NCO & Snr NCO courses this year?I'm not a number, I'm a free man.
Who is number 1?Comment

No Std NCO course has been announced, so its fair to say it will not be announced at this stage.What are you cackling at, fatty? Too much pie, that's your problem.Comment

Interesting - you guys were slated to run itOriginally posted by ODIN View Post
Having said that, E Bde applications for last year's course were in that this stage last
year, the notification for the course hit shops near us before Xmas last year
So the fact that there' s been notification is strange, considering that dates were
announced for it... ?
CORRECTION:
Must have been the Senior NCO Course dates I spotted....Last edited by Truck Driver; 5 February 2010, 16:56."Well, stone me! We've had cocaine, bribery and Arsenal scoring two goals at home.
