Tánaiste Micheal Martin has vowed that he will be the Defence Minister that “gets this done” in reforming the Defence Forces following the shocking revelations of systemic abuse, especially of female members, in a devastating report published this week.
He also said that crimes uncovered by investigators would be dealt with heavily and that no veil of secrecy would be allowed to fall over them - as often happens in military disciplinary situations.
Mr Martin said that An Garda Síochána would be the ones to investigate any crimes.
