I don't know about any cuts but we have considerably more holding officers and NCA at my location some of them doing jobs that are definetely not in their primary job discription. When chatting to the ones I have, the story is all the same, big backlog (2-6months) until there are slots availiable for them in phase 2 training. Some have done 55 Sqn and are waiting type/class courses some are straight from cranditz. None of them have mentioned people being chopped, other than the normal tales of woe.
I have spoken to a pal at cranditz and they have formulated training/outward bounds/personal development courses for those with long holds, so at least they are getting something out of it.
