Simon Coveney (Cork South Central, Fine Gael) | Oireachtas source

Regarding the triple lock, we can control what we want to control when it comes to Irish troops, where they go, how long they stay there and what mandate they operate under. Controlling that is our job as the Government, the Oireachtas and so on. I am not happy that Ireland has to rely on the approval of some of the P5 member states for mandates for future peacekeeping missions, given the behaviour of one of the P5 countries right now.
