Defence (Amendment) Bill 2024: Committee Stage
Seanad Éireann — 2024-07-03
============================================================

Michael McDowell (IND), National University of Ireland

I take the point Senator Wall makes, which is reasonable. The Tánaiste says some of the things that are now proposed are in line with the report by the Commission on the Defence Forces, but we presume that we will be notified if there are going to be deviations from that or if some aspects of the report are not going to be followed. We are entitled to that kind of general information.
