Personal Explanation by Minister
Dail Éireann — 2022-01-27
============================================================

Simon Coveney (FG), Cork South-Central

Before I respond to questions on defence, with the understanding of colleagues, I would like to make a brief comment to address media reports about my comments in response to a question last night at the Fine Gael Parliamentary Party meeting on defence matters and on the situation in Ukraine. I mentioned this earlier to some Deputies.
