Defence & Public Protection UCD Career Development Centre DEFENCE & PUBLIC PROTECTION Sector Background An Garda Síochána Policing is a challenging and exciting role and one which continually presents new and interesting experiences. Modern policing entails much more than crime fighting. Reducing the fear of crime and working in partnership with communities are the keys to making a positive difference and improving quality of life for all citizens. Members of An Garda Síochána operate on the front line, supporting victims and witnesses, providing reassurance and instilling confidence. They are also in a position to make a proactive contribution to an area, building relationships and trust within the community. The career presents opportunities to work in a wide variety of fields including Community Policing, Traffic Control and Regulation, Public Order, Detective Duties, Organised Crime, Fraud and Drugs Offences. The Defence Forces The role of the Defence Forces is to defend the state, aid the civil power participating in United Nations missions overseas and provide a fishery protection service. The Defence Forces may be called on by Government to perform other duties in times of emergency. The Defence Forces includes the Permanent Defence Force and the Reserve Defence Force. The Permanent Defence Force ​ ● The Army ● The Air Corps ● The Naval Service The Air Corps is the air component of the Defence Forces with its base and headquarters at Casement Aerodrome in Baldonnel, Co. Dublin. The Naval Service is the maritime component of the Defence Forces with its base and headquarters located in Haulbowline, Co. Cork.

For over 32 years, the Army Reserve has been an integral part of my life and perhaps the one constant of my adult years.

In writing this foreword I recognise that so much has changed.

  • The Future of the Naval Service Reserve
    The Future of the Naval Service Reserve Introduction The Naval Service Reserve (NSR) is in decline and needs to be reviewed urgently. It is falling foul of many of the issues experienced within the Naval Service (NS). Recruitment and retention problems exists and are extenuated by the effect of a lack of Permanent Defence Force (PDF) personnel to facilitate additional training, administration and logistical support as needed. The Commission has a unique opportunity to review the standing of the Naval Service Reserve and make recommendations accordingly. This submission while limited in length will seek to address some of the key challenges posed in creating an integrated, functional, professional and effective Reserve. This paper will be broken down into three key headings these are, Capability, Structure and Staffing. This paper will move on to briefly look at international practices surrounding Naval Reserves before offering a conclusion of where improvements and advances can be made. The White Paper on Defence has called for an increase of 100 personnel to the Naval Service Reserve. The Naval Service Reserve is presently organized into five separate units, one each in Cork, Dublin, Limerick, Waterford and a Technical Support Unit (TSU). The role of NSR is “to augment PDF Seagoing strength through provision of trained personnel and at unit level to provide for the capability of armed Naval Element afloat with local shore support and expert local maritime knowledge and intelligence in support of PDF Operations at and from the sea in the main trading ports. In support of the mission to maintain Sea Lines of Communication (SLOC) for this island Nation”.

There were several reasons for this transformation of the Swedish Armed Forces (SAF), most important was the new security situation in Europe after the Cold War, which recruit 2018:8 led the SAF focusing more on participation in multinational missions abroad. Prerequisites for recruitment to and retention This thesis focuses on the recruitment and retaining of soldiers during the period when Sweden shifted the manning system for their armed forces. Results suggest in the Swedish Armed Forces that there are different incentives for staying in the SAF depending on manning system. In a conscription system, personality is a more prominent predictor of retention than in a voluntary system. The findings in this thesis emphasize the possibility to get the best from the two manning systems; to use the compulsory Johan Österberg military service as a pool for recruitment to officer programs and NCOs, and the AVF system’s work on improving the psychosocial working conditions in order to retain personnel. At the completion of this thesis, the SAF again changed the manning system, this time to a gender-neutral conscription, as the system with voluntariness failed in providing the SAF with sufficient numbers of soldiers with the right qualities.
