Okay there is a Future of the Army Reserve thread so here we go.....
The establishment is 400, according to recent Dail questions the strength is 266 (of which 181 are on the effective strength (as at 31/5/10)).
They are talking about centralising the AR in barracks, to reduce costs (but this will also improve training - more access to weapons etc).
There are currently NSR coys in Dublin, Waterford, Cork (in Haulbowline??) and Limerick. Would it make sense to stop their parade nights and centralise in Haulbowline (with transport provided to Cork)????
