I know the answer the Minister will give to my question, that is, that our neutrality is respected and intact. That there is a mandatory contribution, in addition to a voluntary one, under the common foreign and security policy raises issues. We cannot ignore what has been brought to light regarding what has been happening in Shannon. I know the Minister will tell me our neutrality is not in danger of being undermined but the reality is as I have described.
