The Women of Honour have said Defence Minister Micheál Martin's decision to bring the terms of reference of the forthcoming Defence Forces tribunal to Cabinet on Tuesday is “a stunt”.

Diane Byrne said the group, which had previously called for the Defence Minister to be removed from the current process of setting up the tribunal to examine sexual, physical and emotional abuse within the ranks, do not know what the full terms of reference are.
