MoD 'may have to re-hire thousands' - Defence Management
The Ministry of defence may be forced to re-hire thousands of personnel made redundant during recent cuts in order to tackle skills shortages, a committee of MPs is expected to say this week.
Some 29,000 civilian and 25,000 military jobs are to be cut by the Ministry of Defence by 2015 and thousands of personnel have already left under the ministry's Voluntary Early Release Scheme and through compulsory armed forces redundancies.
The House of Commons Public Accounts Committee is said to be about to publish a report warning that cutting jobs so quickly before the future civil service and army structures have been finalised may have been a mistake.
Allowing around 8,000 military and civilian personnel to leave voluntarily and not replacing 16,000 has left the ministry with insufficient control over which skilled staff it has lost, the report is expected to say.

Yep, they're already actively recruiting blokes on FTRS in my trade.
