    ah, the contractor band-aid..

    In fairness, they should just accept it, and negotiate a contract with others to get a reduction on cost.

    Will be interesting to see how many go for the new commissioned roles. While pay will be less than industry, Ireland can be quite competitive in the private sector, so anyone who doesn't want to leave Ireland, it could be a good option.

    Will be tough work for someone who has done 10-15 years in civvy land to join and put up with Military guff on top of trying to deliver projects though.
