Defence Forces
Dail Éireann — 2024-05-16
============================================================

Cathal Berry (IND), Kildare South

I want to associate myself with those comments relating to Lieutenant General Seán Clancy as well. It is a great bit of news for the general personally, his family, the Defence Forces and Ireland. I very much welcome that appointment.
My question this morning relates to allowances payable to Defence Force personnel involved in the EU battle groups. I would be grateful if the Tánaiste could make a statement to the House.
