Legislative Measures
Dail Éireann — 2026-05-07
============================================================

Donnchadh Ó Laoghaire (SF), Cork South-Central

The volatile nature of the world underlines all the more the reason that Ireland needs to maintain an independent foreign policy. Central to that policy, as was articulated by members of the Government while in opposition is the triple lock. This is a crucial protection for our neutrality. I would like an update as to where this legislation stands and what consideration the Minister has given to the pre-legislative scrutiny report from the committee.
