Defence (Amendment) Bill 2024: Report and Final Stages
Dail Éireann — 2024-06-12
============================================================

Micheál Martin (FF), Cork South-Central

There were attempts, after the report of the independent review group was published, to question whether it went over the top and all of that. That happened too. Where there has been resistance, there has been resistance to some of what the IRG said. There has been resistance to the idea of cultural change. It is there. Resistance to the oversight body is part of that resistance. People might not like me saying that, although not in this House. I take the bona fides of the Deputies here.
