Proposed Approval by Dáil Éireann of Ireland's Participation in Two PESCO Projects and Two European Defence Agency Projects and the Report Regarding Service by the Defence Forces with the UN in 2023: Referral to Select Committee
Dail Éireann — 2024-06-25
============================================================

Richard Boyd Barrett (PBP), Dún Laoghaire

This motion relates to the European Defence Agency and the involvement of Irish troops with PESCO. Some of us believe this represents a very serious threat to Ireland's neutrality. It is being referred to the committee, which would be normal but do we have a commitment that when the committee has considered this, it will be sent back to the Dáil and there will be a debate on it? If there is not, then we will be calling a vote on it being referred to the committee.
