A member of the Women of Honour group has described the review proposed by the Department of Defence in relation to the group's allegations of sexism, bullying, sexual assault and rape within the Defence Forces as nothing more than a "paper exercise that has been done before".
Ms Byrne said that the proposed review lacks the statutory powers that are really needed to get into the details of the problem, and cannot compel witnesses or documents."It's looking at the policies and procedures and the incidents themselves but what we're looking at and talking about is much bigger than that," she said.
She called for an independently appointed person to oversee the review, adding that she is unaware of anyone who is satisfied with the proposals.
Exactly. No one will be held Accountable. More Women Failed by the State.
