Defence Forces hit by low morale

High turnover, low morale, and low pay are among the complaints of members of the Defence Forces who are to have their case put to the defence minister this week.

Fianna Fáil leader Micheál Martin asked Taoiseach Leo Varadkar about issues for Defence Force members after a damning report on standards in the army was revealed by the Irish Examiner.

The report says poor pay, resources, and conditions in the army have led to an exodus of members.
