I will respond that, cognisant to the fact that the recruitment is going on, I do not think it is prudent for us to injunct an on-going process. However, we will respond to the policy question that has been asked. What we know for sure is that the Military is not an equal opportunity employer and that is for a good reason; because of their specialised service. I have heard questions about Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) having the same opportunity to be a military officer. It is not realistic because it is a physical job. But there are certain administrative functions within the military where we can have the PWDs, such as, some office work, carpenters, et cetera . Many PWDs are very skilled in different arts, but in terms of being officers like the ones being sought in the recruitment that is going on right now, apart from the cadets and the specialised ones, we do not expect to see that. Mr. Speaker, Sir, I do not know if we will ask about the issue of teeth as asked by Sen. Kajwang. We will just know their policy. Maybe it affects the camouflage."
