Important and urgent are maybe slightly different things. I also wanted to ask about the Maritime Analysis and Operations Centre, Narcotics. I think we all support the reform of the Defence Forces and having adequate safeguards in terms of drug interdiction missions. In my view, it is primarily a justice and home affairs type of issue but military personnel may be needed from a security point of view.
I am not clear on why the triple lock interferes with that. Could Ms Maguire articulate that for me?
